Mole Removal FAQs
The four main types of mole removal are surgical (uses surgical scissors to extract moles), shaving (uses a scalpel to shave moles down), laser (uses laser light to destroy the mole’s skin cells), and freezing (uses liquid nitrogen to remove non-cancerous mole removal).
Mole removal is fairly quick. Both surgical and shaving methods will see a local anaesthetic applied to numb the area around your mole before it is either cut out (surgical) or shaved (razed down using a scalpel blade). You will probably need stitches if your mole is surgically removed; however, if it’s shaved off, it should just leave a red mark. A good alternative to surgical and shaving techniques is laser mole removal which uses short bursts of laser light to destroy your mole’s skin cells. Freezing works well for non-cancerous moles that sit close to the surface of your skin; it involves freezing your mole off using liquid nitrogen. This method will leave a small blister.
Healing times largely depend on the depth of your mole, but complete healing should take 2-6 weeks.
Mole removal is considered low risk, but common side effects include bleeding from the wound, scarring, nerve damage, infection, and even mole regrowth. If your mole does grow back, go to your doctor straight away.
You're likely to pay between ZAR 299 and ZAR 600 to have a mole removed.
Look for a consultant dermatologist to carry out your mole removal, and check they’re listed on the professional register in the country you are having your mole removed. In the USA, for example, you can check online at the American Academy of Dermatology; and in the UK, you’ll need to look at the General Medical Council.
