Mole Removal
Before undergoing any mole removal, you will be required to attend a consultation with our Advanced nurse practitioner. This will give her the opportunity to examine the mole and decide on the best possible method for removal. We use only the most advanced state of the art techniques for mole removal which result in minimal scarring and best cosmetic results. There are a number of techniques that are used to remove moles.
Surgical Excision
Depending on the size and shape of the mole it may need to be removed through surgical excision. Local anaesthetic will firstly be injected into the area around the mole to render the area fully numb. We will will then use meticulous surgical techniques to minimise scarring in carefully removing the mole. Surgical mole removal will result in a small scar, however, this will fade over time.
Single mole price starts from £400
Laser Removal
For raised benign moles our advanced nurse practitioner will use Erbium YAG laser to enable precise removal and to enable the best scarring result. Laser mole removal using Erbium YAG laser is an excellent technique for moles in cosmetically sensitive areas like the face because both faster healing and better scarring are both possible. In many cases we are able to remove moles with Erbium YAG laser without any evidence of scarring whatsoever. This is more achievable in lighter skin types and less so in darker skin types. For laser mole removal, the Erbium YAG laser is the optimum laser for highly precise mole removal and minimal risk of pigmentation and scarring as there is much lower thermal energy transmitted to underlying tissues compared with the more traditional CO2 laser. Healing is quicker with less risk of scarring with Erbium YAG laser compared with CO2 laser.
Prices start from £250 for a single mole
