Mole Removal

Most moles are harmless, but you may find you’d simply rather not keep them hanging around. It might be that they’re catching on clothing, or you simply don’t like them for cosmetic reasons. Luckily, mole removal is a quick, painless procedure you can have undertaken here at Skin Matters by Colette, your Surrey based aestheticians.

However, before we can book you in for the appointment itself, we’ll need to get you in for a consultation. This will ensure the mole in question is safe to remove, and we know the right technique to employ. Keep in mind you should visit your doctor or private dermatologist if you’ve noticed a mole has changed in appearance (e.g colour, size, shape) or has suddenly become irritated.

There are three core techniques we employ for mole removal: surgical excision, surgical shave and electrolysis. The first sees us numb the area with a topical anaesthetic, then a scalpel is used to cut the mole out, and the skin closed up. The second is employed for smaller moles, and as the name suggests, involves using a sterilised blade to shave the mole and some of the underlying tissue.

Book in a consultation at our Surrey clinic to find out if your mole is suitable for removal. You can reach the Skin Matters team on 07851 677444.
