How is the mole removed?

At Mole Removal San Diego, we use radio frequency ablation to remove moles and skin tags. Our surgeon uses heat and a pencil like device that has a metal loop to gently remove the mole, going through each layer. The procedure is effective and precise, making for cosmetically pleasing results.

Can moles grow back after removal?

Moles do not grow back after our mole removal procedure. This is because we use a new medical technology that allows our surgeon to remove the mole at the root, going through each layer.

What is the aftercare and healing process for mole removal?

For the best results, it’s important to keep the area of the mole removal clean and bandaged for up to 10 days after the procedure. The bandages that we give you are small and clear though, so you don’t have to worry about a highly noticeable bandage! We also advise to keep the area out of direct sunlight and water for 10 days. We give our patients a skincare gel that they can apply daily on the area. This gel helps speed up the healing process and minimizes scarring.

How much is mole removal?

The cost of our mole removal procedure depends on various factors, such as the size of the mole, where the mole is located on the body and how many moles are being removed. The final price is determined during the consultation, after our surgeon examines the moles. Call or email our team today to get a better idea of pricing!

Is mole removal painful?

Mole Removal is not painful at all. After the initial numbing injection, the procedure is minimally invasive and gentle on the skin and therefore virtually painless. Some patients have experienced very minor discomfort during the procedure. Our surgeon injects anesthesia with the tiniest needle possible to ensure our patients are comfortable and calm throughout the procedure. You can sit back and relax as we help you reach clear, beautiful skin.

What happens after my procedure?

Dr. Mann will explain your aftercare instructions in detail during the consultation and again immediately after the procedure. You will also be provided a printout with instructions on how to care for the wound immediately after the procedure. Scarring is generally minimal as long as Dr. Mann’s aftercare instructions are followed and the majority of patients are extremely satisfied with their results.

Do the procedures hurt?

Patients are given an injection of local anesthetic before the procedure. The medicine works in a small area around the mole or skin lesion itself, with no systemic side effects or drowsiness. After the injection, patients generally don’t feel anything. Rest assured, Dr. Mann himself performs 100% of the treatment and can adjust the amount of local anesthetic as needed.

What medical procedures are used to remove moles at Mole Removal San Diego?

At Mole Removal San Diego, Dr. Mann employs several effective mole removal techniques depending on the patient’s specific case. The most popular is called radiofrequency cauterization, where Dr. Mann “erases” the mole using radiofrequency energy and a cautery machine. This procedure is mostly painless and provides lasting, effective results for patients who follow Dr. Mann’s aftercare instructions. The benefits, risks, and aftercare of the procedure will be explained in depth during your consultation with Dr. Mann.

What is the process to begin treatment with Mole Removal San Diego?

All new patients begin with a detailed consultation with Dr. Peter Mann, where he examines your skin and makes a treatment recommendation based on your specific case. For patients who want to proceed with mole removal, we generally can perform the procedure on the same day as the consultation if desired. In the very rare case that Dr. Mann determines that a mole is cancerous or precancerous, patients are immediately referred to a medical dermatologist for evaluation. Please call or email our office to schedule your consultation!

When should I have my moles evaluated?

It is generally recommended that you have a skin examination as part of your annual physical. New or changing moles that show signs of cancer, are bleeding, are rapidly growing, or are becoming discolored should be evaluated immediately. At Mole Removal San Diego, every patient sees Dr. Mann for an in-depth skin consultation where he evaluates your mole and recommends the removal procedure that will be most effective for your specific case.
