Important Questions about

Mole Removal and Skin Tag Removal

Is mole removal painful?2021-01-24T05:16:16+00:00

Patients usually feel a tiny pinch when the anesthetic is injected into the area. This sensation is usually described as having a rubber band snapped against their skin. After this, you will feel no pain during the procedure and the anesthetic will wear off as the day goes on.

Can moles grow back?2021-01-24T05:15:29+00:00

It is very unlikely that this would happen, but in very rare cases large moles might grow back. Should this happen, patients are encouraged to come back to our office for a complimentary follow-up treatment.

How will the mole be removed?2021-01-24T05:14:23+00:00

Once the mole is deemed safe to remove, our surgeon will clean and prep the area and numb it with a local anesthetic injection. After the numbing agent takes effect, the surgeon will utilize the state-of-the-art technology to slowly and precisely remove the mole (s). Following the procedure, our team will bandage the area and send you home with the after care products and instructions. Your appointment will most likely last between 30 and 60 minutes.

Will there be a scar after the mole removal?2021-01-24T05:13:23+00:00

Our highly skilled and board-certified surgeons are thankful to have access to the latest medical technology which allows them to effectively remove the mole(s) and provide unnoticeable, and in most cases nonexistent, scarring. We also provide every patient with medical grade skincare that when used according to the instructions also aids in providing scar-free results.

What is the after care procedure following mole removal?2021-01-24T05:12:34+00:00

Following your mole removal, our surgeons will provide you with after care instructions. After care is very simple and only takes a few minutes every day for a few weeks. Our team will thoroughly explain the process which includes keeping the area clean and rubbing Neopsorin and/or similar products to the area.

Is mole removal safe?2021-01-24T05:11:13+00:00

Moles are usually non-cancerous and are therefore 100% safe to remove. We hire board-certified surgeons that have over 20 years of experience in the medical field and will examine and diagnose the mole before beginning any treatment. We always conduct a thorough examination and if the mole is suspected of being cancerous, our surgeons will refer you to a specialist.

How long will it take to heal?2021-01-24T05:10:06+00:00

We advise patients to stay out of the ocean and pool and avoid prolonged sun exposure for about one week. After the initial week, you are welcome to return to normal activities while the area continues to heal for about an additional four weeks. Depending on the size of the treated area and the depth of the mole removal, the spot may take up to three months to heal entirely.

How much is mole removal at your location?2021-01-24T05:09:00+00:00

The cost does depend on the number of moles treated, their size, and location. While insurance does not cover cosmetic mole removal we try our best to offer affordable services! During your initial consultation our team will provide you with a price breakdown for your specific treatment.
