If you have unwanted moles on your face or body and wish to have them removed for either aesthetic or medical reasons, you may be a good candidate for surgical mole removal. For larger moles, more invasive surgical excision may be required.

Moles found anywhere throughout your body can be treated in a variety of ways.

The entire mole removal process can be done in as little as 20-30 minutes depending on the size and position of the mole as well as the method of removal.

Immediate results can be seen when a mole is removed. If the shaving method is used, no sutures are necessary. Punch excision may require 1-2 sutures and surgical excision can need slightly more.

No. You can go about your daily routine directly after your mole removal treatment. You may be asked to avoid swimming, washing up, and other activities that could potentially dampen the treated area.

Only one session is usually needed to remove a mole. However, if you have a good deal of moles that need to be removed, you may want to consider breaking treatment into multiple sessions.
