Mole removal is designed to transform and refine your skin’s appearance with minimal intrusion. Using the shave excision technique, this treatment effectively flattens raised moles, typically in a singular visit, resulting in a smoother, less conspicuous area.
No matter the size or shape of your unwanted mole, our experienced physicians at Project Skin MD are dedicated to completing this procedure with precision and care. Your comfort is top of mind for us, and following treatment, we often see an immediate self-esteem boost that leaves patients feeling more comfortable in their own skin.
During your mole removal appointment, we ensure your comfort and strive for an anxiety-free experience. As a result, each procedure begins with the application of a local anesthetic to numb the target area. Our skilled physician then uses fine, precise movements with a surgical blade to carefully shave the mole and minimize its prominence. We then apply gentle pressure to the area and cover it with a sterile dressing. Following your treatment, we take the time to review aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing.
Typically, the recovery period for mole removal spans from 10 to 14 days, during which the treatment area tends to heal to a flat, brown, or initially pink appearance. It is important to note that the possibility of mole regrowth varies between patients, and it’s not uncommon for some individuals to see a recurrence over time. Should this happen, further sessions can be performed to maintain the desired aesthetic outcome.
If patients have any concerns about post-treatment pigmentation, our team at Project Skin MD can provide various treatment solutions to address them.
During your consultation, your physician will examine your skin to determine a treatment plan for your unique skin needs.
We take photos for your patient file so you can easily reference your results over time.
We will review your consent forms with you and answer any questions you may have before proceeding with treatment.
A topical anesthetic is applied to the targeted area to reduce discomfort during the procedure, followed by the careful reduction of the mole with surgical precision. We then apply gentle compression to minimize swelling, followed by a protective dressing.
Mole removal starts at $350 per treatment.
Shave excisions require only a single treatment. Depending on the nature of the mole, regrowth can occur over time and may require a repeated shave excision.
There are no contraindications for this treatment.
