Moles – are growths on the skin. Moles are made up of a clustering of melanin in the skin – stemming from melanocytes – which can be found commonly on the skin. Moles are usually pink, tan or brown. They can be flat or raised and are usually round or oval and no larger than a pencil eraser.

Treatment:

Ultra Pulse CO2 laser is the ideal modern treatment for mole removal – A quick, effective and relatively painless treatment (Anaesthetic is available)  leaves minimal to no scarring ,no stitches are required therefore there’s a quick recovery time. The entire head and root of the growth is removed therefore the mole cannot regrow again.

A light scab is left after the treatment which flakes off over the next 3- 6 days( depending on size of mole). A sunblock with a high SPF should be applied to the area everyday thereafter until natural skin colour develops.
