Questions About
Mole Removal &
Skin Tag Removal

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

After a mole removal procedure, the skin is delicate and slightly red. The area will return to your skin color a few weeks after the procedure. It will take anywhere from 3-6 months for the mole removal procedure to fully heal, fill in with healthy skin tissue and reach the best results.

Skin tags, also known as acrochordons, are harmless growths that are raised. Skin tags are usually a brown or black color and can vary in size. They commonly grow in areas where skin is rubbed together, such as the neck, armpits, eyelids and chest.

There are many skin tag removal techniques that are commonly used at medical spas and dermatologists. Some of these skin tag removal techniques include freezing off a skin tag, cutting off a skin tag or shaving off a skin tag. These skin tag removal techniques are harsh on the skin and often lead to severe scarring. At Mole Removal San Diego, we use radio frequency ablation to remove skin tags. This is a new medical technology that uses heat to remove skin tags at the root. This technique is gentle on the skin, precise and leaves little to no scarring.

When treated by a medical professional, skin tag removal is extremely safe. Skin tags are usually harmless and safe to remove. At Mole Removal San Diego, our surgeon will examine the skin tag to ensure it’s a good candidate for our skin tag removal procedure.

Our skin tag removal procedure is not painful. Some patients have experienced mild discomfort at times. To ensure our patients feel comfortable and relaxed our surgeon will numb the area with general anesthesia with a tiny needle.

The price of skin tag removal is determined at the initial consultation. Our surgeon must examine the skin tag in order to determine pricing. The price is based on the size of the skin tag, where the skin tag is located on the body and how many skin tags are being removed. If patients decide to remove more than one skin tag then we will put together a package price.
