How does mole removal work?
We always ask you to have your mole checked by a GP prior to removal, just to be sure there is no reason not to have it taken off. Our primary objective is to make you feel comfortable and confident that this is the right thing to do.
The mole removal process will depend on the type of mole you have. We use a combination of surgical excision, shave excision, and an electrosurgical removal device to safely and comfortably remove your mole. After removal, we will send the sample for histology, to give you peace of mind that it was nothing to worry about.

Frequently asked questions
What is a mole?
A mole is usually a dark spot or irregularity in the skin, but the term can be used for any lump or blemish free skin that is present on the face or body. Sometimes they are raised, other times they are flat. They develop when pigment cells grow in clusters.
What causes moles?
In some cases, our clients are born with moles, other times they appear over time. Exposure to sunlight can develop moles or accelerate their growth. Some people are more predisposed to developing moles due to their heredity.
How do I know if my mole is dangerous?
The NHS recommend an A, B, C, D, E of mole checks to find out if your mole is a cause for concern. These are:
​
-
A for Asymmetry – if the mole is not a regular shape, it could be growing in a haphazard way
-
B for Borders – poorly defined borders mean it may be growing irregularly
-
C for Colour – if your mole changes colour or has a patch of unusual pigmentation, it would be worth getting it checked by a nurse
-
D for Diameter – moles that are larger than the blunt end of a pencil should be checked regularly
-
E for Evolving – if the size, shape or colour of your mole changes, you should seek medical advice
​
Most moles are perfectly harmless; however, if you are at all worried about your mole, do see your GP for advice.
How long does mole removal take?
Most treatments take around 20 – 30 minutes, depending on the location of the mole and whether we’re removing just one or more than one.
Is mole removal painful?
We use a local anaesthetic before any treatment takes place to prevent your pain and discomfort. We will apply this around 5 – 10 minutes before we start the procedure.
Do I need the day off work?
​You can leave the clinic as soon as we’ve finished treatment, and you’ll be fine to go back to work the same day if you wish. We recommend keeping the wound clean and dry for at least two days, and then we’ll see you again to remove your stitches 7 – 10 days after your treatment.
Where can you remove moles from?
Our nurses have years of experience in removing moles from all sorts of sensitive and hard to reach places. Whether your mole is on your arm, face or back, we can remove it safely for you.
Will I have a scar?
We use our experience and modern techniques to minimise the risk of any scarring as much as possible. However, in some cases a small scar will remain, but this will fade over time.
Will the mole grow back?
There is a small chance that the mole might reoccur, but we do our best to remove all the abnormal cells to ensure this doesn’t happen. In the unlikely event that your mole does start to reappear, we will book you in for another treatment.
What are the risks to this treatment?
There are very few risks associated with mole removal, thanks to our state of the art clinic and exemplary hygiene standards. The actual procedure carries low risk of any complications, but feel free to ask us more at your consultation.
Can you remove a mole from the face?
Yes, a mole can be removed from any location on your body, including the face.
How much does mole removal cost?
The price of mole removal depends on factors such as the mole's size, shape, location, and the method of removal. Our services for mole removal starts from £110.
We advise scheduling a consultation with our nurse practitioner to receive a more precise estimate and additional information.
Mole Removal Aftercare
Following the mole removal procedure, healing is segmented into three progressive phases:
Inflammatory Phase: This phase begins 12 hours post-procedure, enduring for about 5 days.
Proliferation Phase: This begins within the first 24 hours after removal, and extends for 7 days alongside the inflammatory phase.
Maturation Phase: This phase lasts up to a year post treatment.
Stitches from a procedure will need removal 7-10 days post treatment which our nurses will take care of for you.
We recommend keeping the area dry and clean during the healing stage.
Is Mole Removal Safe?
Yes, mole removal is considered a safe procedure when performed by qualified healthcare professionals.
Our nurse practitioners have years of experience performing this treatment, so you're in safe hands.
​
The process involves the use of proven techniques to minimise the risk of infection or complications. It is essential to follow the prescribed aftercare instructions diligently to avoid any adverse effects and ensure proper healing.
