Mole Removal

Why have lesions removed?

Most moles, cysts, skin-tags and lesions are common abnormalities that are nothing more than a source of embarrassment or irritation. However, there is no reason why you should continue to tolerate them when we can remove them.

Lesions we can treat

Almost all common lesions are benign, or non-cancerous. At Transform, we only want to remove lesions that we know are benign. If you have a serious mole, cyst, skin-tag or lesion appears that we suspect may not be benign we would not remove it and refer you to your doctor.

The different types of non-benign, skin abnormalities we can treat includes:

Moles

Brown or black growths on the skin. As the years pass, moles usually change shape, colour or become raised.

Cysts

Sacs filled with fluid or semi-fluid material. These can develop in various places in the body.

Skin tags

Small protruding pieces of skin that can grow in the groin area, armpits, neck and eyelids.

Skin lesions

Surface growths or patches of the skin that don’t resemble the skin around it.

Lenitgines

Small dark spots on the skin that can be a genetic condition caused by excessive radiation or sun exposure.

Treatment

Mole removal, cyst removal, lesion removal and skin tag removal are outpatient procedures that we can be safely carried out in our clinics.

First a dermatologist will carefully remove the mole, cyst, lesion or skin tag then send it for analysis. This is to ensure there are no abnormal cells. Next, one of our highly skilled doctors will then complete the procedure by inserting tiny stitches. To treat lentigines we can use cryotherapy, laser surgery or skin creams.

How long does it take?

The procedure takes just 20 minutes and you will be free to go soon after.

The results

After we have removed a mole, cyst, skin-tag or lesion it may leave a small scar. Don’t worry, this should fade in time.

How much does it cost?

The cost of the procedure depends on the affected area and your skin. As a guide, removing one mole usually costs from £490.
