What size of a scar should one anticipate after mole removal, and is it feasible to have no scars at all?

Sometimes. If the mole is raised and flesh toned, I will perform a shave excision followed by low energy cautery. This typically results in no scarring, with a small chance of recurrence. There is always a small risk of a noticeable scar anytime the skin is incised.

I'd like to inquire about the cost of mole removal and the specific procedures involved in the removal process.

Mole removal cost is highly dependent on the size and time it will take to remove it. You will also have pathology charges as well. Best of luck to you!

I'm considering getting rid of the moles on my face.

Hello, I have a mole situated on my left cheek just above the end of my mustache. I am planning to have it removed by a plastic surgeon. I understand that there will be scarring involved, and after researching various mole removal procedures, it seems that this method may result in the largest scar compared to others. Consequently, I am now hesitant about proceeding with this approach and am considering the option of simply shaving the mole to minimize scarring. I would greatly appreciate your professional opinion. Should I opt for removal or shaving?

Hi there,Deciding between shaving a mole or full removal really depends on a few factors. Shaving usually leaves a smaller scar, but the mole might come back because it's not fully removed. It's quicker and might be less noticeable. Full removal by a plastic surgeon, while it may leave a bigger initial scar, ensures the mole is completely gone and you get the benefit of their expertise in minimizing scarring over time. If there's any chance the mole is atypical or could be something more serious, full removal is definitely the way to go.I'd recommend seeing a dermatologist first to get their take on it. They can tell you if there's any risk with just shaving it. If it's just a cosmetic concern and the mole is benign, shaving might be fine. If you want to make sure it's fully gone and don't mind the initial scar, go with the plastic surgeon.Hope this helps!

Should I opt for shaving the mole or complete removal by a plastic surgeon?

I'm interested in using radiofrequency to remove the moles on my face. Are there any potential risks? Also, is it possible to have several moles removed on the same day, and should I be concerned about developing sunspots during summer holidays?

Using radiofrequency for mole removal is generally safe and effective. It's a non-invasive method that uses heat to remove the moles, which can be less painful and have a quicker recovery time compared to traditional methods.As for having multiple moles removed in one session, it's usually fine. Many people do it when they have several they want to get rid of at once.Regarding sun exposure, yes, it's important to be cautious. After mole removal, your skin can be more sensitive. Make sure to use a high SPF sunscreen and avoid direct sun exposure to prevent sunspots and other pigmentation issues. Hope this helps
