Mole & Lesion Removal

Removal of moles and skin lesions for medical or cosmetic reasons, with biopsy when needed to confirm that the spot is benign.

Moles and other skin lesions may be removed because they are suspicious, because they catch on clothing or get irritated, or simply because you would like them gone for cosmetic reasons. Our dermatologists evaluate every spot first to determine the safest and most appropriate approach.

If a mole has any features that warrant further evaluation, we remove it and send it to a laboratory to confirm whether it is benign or requires additional treatment. When removal is purely cosmetic, we focus on techniques that leave the best possible result.

We perform mole and lesion removal in the comfort of our office, usually in a single visit under local anesthesia. You will leave with clear aftercare instructions and the reassurance of an expert evaluation.
