Mole treatment and removal Beaconsfield

Mole examination and removal

At Skin Revision, we can remove moles and would consider three non-surgical options. Depending on the size and age of the mole, we will use either Plasma, VeinAway or medical-grade CryoPen cryotherapy.

Following your enquiry and telephone conversation, we would ask you forward us a photo of the moles you would like assessed.

After this, you will be offered a mole dermoscopic assessment within the clinic. The image captured photos would then be sent off for a report to our dermatologist. (a report received within 48 hours). Alternatively, you can make an appointment to see your GP for a doctor’s note, showing your moles are benign and ok to proceed with removal by us.

The mole removal treatment has minimal discomfort. The time taken to treat the moles will depend on the size and number of moles, but should be no longer than 20 minutes.

You will be able to leave the skin clinic immediately but must adhere to the homecare advice given, in order to protect your skin treatment area.

How long before the Mole is gone ? 

The time taken for the mole and the blemish left on the skin will depend on a number of factors. This may include the age of the mole, the age of the patient, the size of the mole and the patient’s body’s ability to break down the mole following treatment.

Does the Mole treatment hurt?

With any of the three possible procedures that Jacqui would carry out at the clinic, there is just minimal discomfort over a very short period of time. A numbing cream maybe applied especially on more sensitive areas such as the scalp or around the eyes. You will be able to leave the skin clinic immediately but must adhere to the strict homecare advice given, in order to protect your skin treatment area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can children have treatment to remove Moles?

How old do you have to be to have a mole removed? – Unfortunately, for insurance purposes, it is not possible to treat anyone to have their moles removed if they are under the age of 6. Those who are 6 – 18 years of age will need to be with their parent or guardian.

How many treatments will be needed to remove Moles?

Depending on the amount of moles or the size of the moles, it should take between 1 to 3 treatments for the total removal of any mole. Generally speaking, one small mole or a number of small moles should only take one treatment. Your initial mole assessment will give you realistic expectations of the time frame expected for the total removal of the moles.

Do Moles get bigger and change colour as I get older?

The number of moles on your body and face can increase over time. It is also possible that moles can increase in size over many years. They may begin to grow little strands of hair and it is not uncommon for moles to change shape, become more raised, or be darker / lighter in colour. It is very important for you or someone you know well to check for new moles and see any changes in the appearance of existing moles. If you are at all unsure or have any questions, you must speak to your GP or dermatologist as soon as possible.

Is Mole removal painful?

There is minimal discomfort when treating moles on the face, scalp or body. We would however offer a local anaesthetic cream to numb any mole to be treated on sensitive areas such as the scalp or around the eyes. Depending on the area being treated, will depend on the amount of discomfort.

Can I wash my face after having a Mole removed?

After 24 hours, you can wash your face or body normally with a mild unperfumed face wash. However, we would advise to avoid the treated area and to make sure it is kept dry for a number of days. Excessive cardio should be avoided for the first 24 hours. It is extremely important to follow the homecare advice given after your mole removal treatment.

It is no longer possible for GPs to remove moles within their practice. We can treat all moles providing they have been cleared to treat by our laboratories. Results tend to take 48 – 72 hours, following examination from ourselves.

Does Mole removal require stiches?

No. This is a non-surgical procedure that is safe and quick. There are no incisions made and no stitches are required. Providing that you have followed the advice given, you will be left blemish-free.

Who requires Mole removal treatment?

How old do you have to be to have a mole removed? – Unfortunately, for insurance purposes, it is not possible to treat anyone to have their moles removed if they are under the age of 6. Those who are 6 – 18 years of age will need to be with their parent or guardian.

Will the Moles grow back some time in the future?
Can my doctor or GP remove my mole at their practice or surgery in Beaconsfield, Gerrards Cross and Buckinghamshire?

It is highly unlikely that the moles will grow back in the same place after treatment. The treated area will become clear and free of any marks if the advice given for homecare is adhered to. However, new moles can develop at any, on any area of the face or body, particularly as you age.

How much does it cost for Mole removal?

The price for mole removal starts from around £150. However, a full understanding of the costs will be given during your mole assessment and before any commitment by you to go ahead with treatment.
