Mole Removal

Mole removal at Soni Derma Clinic involves various techniques to safely and effectively remove moles for cosmetic, diagnostic, or medical reasons. Moles, also known as nevi, are common skin growths that can vary in size, color, and shape. While most moles are benign, some may need to be removed if they become bothersome, change in appearance, or are suspected of being cancerous.

What is Mole Removal?

Mole removal is a procedure to eliminate moles from the skin. The choice of technique depends on factors such as the size, type, and location of the mole, as well as the patient’s medical history and preferences.

Types of Mole Removal Techniques:

1. Shave Excision:

   • Procedure: A small blade is used to shave off the mole at the level of the surrounding skin. This technique is typically used for raised moles.
   • Ideal For: Non-cancerous, superficial moles.

2. Surgical Excision:

   • Procedure: The entire mole, including a margin of healthy skin around it, is removed with a scalpel. The area is then closed with stitches.
   • Ideal For: Deeper moles or those suspected of being cancerous. This method ensures that the mole is completely removed and allows for histological examination.

3. Laser Removal:

   • Procedure: A laser is used to break down the pigment of the mole. This technique is less invasive but may not be suitable for all types of moles.
   • Ideal For: Flat moles or those with pigmentation issues.

Benefits of Mole Removal:

• Aesthetic Improvement: Removal can improve the appearance of the skin and eliminate moles that are cosmetically bothersome.
• Diagnostic: If the mole is suspected of being cancerous, removal and subsequent examination can provide a definitive diagnosis.
• Prevention: Removing moles that have changed in appearance or are prone to irritation can help prevent potential skin issues.
