Mole and Skin Lesion Removal
Moles, skin tags, and cysts are often non-cancerous skin lesions, but it’s important to monitor any changes. Moles (nevi) can be congenital (present at birth) or develop later in life. They may be flat, raised, pigmented, or skin-colored. While most moles are benign, changes in size, shape, or color should be checked.
Sebaceous cysts and lipomas are common, presenting as small, soft lumps under the skin. These deeper lesions can also be surgically removed under local or general anaesthetic.
If you are concerned about the appearance or changes in a skin lesion, removal is possible. The lesion can be removed under local anaesthetic, and if there are any concerns, the tissue will be sent for further testing.
Insurance and coverage
Private health insurance may cover mole removal and other skin lesions, but some policies may classify the procedure as cosmetic surgery. Check with your provider for coverage details. If authorized, consultation and treatment can take place on the same day.
Aftercare and recovery
Postoperative pain is minimal, with sutures typically removed in 4-6 days for the face and 7-10 days for other areas. Scarring may appear red or lumpy initially but softens and fades over time.
