What is Mole Removal?

We all have birthmarks and moles around our bodies, but we often don’t realize how detrimental they can be to our health when they begin to grow abnormally. While many moles and birthmarks are completely safe to have on the body, exposure to the sun’s UV rays can damage the skin and create abnormal cell growth that has the potential to lead to skin cancer. Dr. Amy B. Lewis is happy to offer biopsy and mole removal services to ensure you keep your healthiest looking and feeling skin year-round.

How Much does Mole Removal Cost?

The price of your mole removal treatment will vary depending on the size of your treated area, and the extent of treatment needed to help you achieve your desired results. To get a better idea of how much your mole removal treatment will cost, come in for a private consultation with Dr. Amy B. Lewis and her staff.

What Can I Expect During my Mole Removal?

A suspicious mole removal is typically done as a two-part process. The first step in the process involves a simple punch or scrape biopsy. Before your biopsy, Dr. Lewis will numb your treated area to ensure you remain comfortable during this portion of your treatment process. The biopsy of your suspicious mole will be sent to a lab, where it will be tested for malignancy or abnormal cell growth. If the mole does come back as being abnormal, Dr. Lewis will schedule a second appointment for you to come in and get the entire mole removed. 

What Results Can I Expect from my Mole Removal?

Mole removal is a minimally invasive procedure that typically involves the scraping of a mole to removal all abnormal or suspicious cells. Because mole removal is a minimally invasive treatment, there is no formal downtime or recovery period associated with each treatment. Most patients are able to return to their normal daily activities, including work, immediately following their mole removal treatment.
