Mole removal services are in high demand for individuals looking to improve their skin’s appearance. At our Wrexham and Nantwich skin clinics, we understand that moles can either pose health risks like skin cancer or simply affect self-esteem due to their appearance. Therefore, we tailor a wide range of mole removal services to meet our patients’ diverse needs.


Understanding Moles

Moles, common benign skin growths, can appear anywhere on the body. They typically manifest as dark spots and vary greatly in size and shape. Some stand out as raised, while others blend in, lying flat against the skin. Although moles generally pose no harm or discomfort, many choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons.


Options for Mole Removal

We offer various techniques for mole removal at our clinics, including surgical excision, shave excision, and laser removal, along with other specialist methods. Your mole’s size, location, and your personal goals will determine the most fitting removal method.

Surgical Excision

We use this method to remove suspicious, larger, or raised moles. It involves numbing the area, excising the mole with a scalpel, and then suturing the wound closed.

Shave Excision

This method suits smaller, flat moles and skin lesions like warts best. Our team numbs the area before carefully shaving the mole’s surface with a small blade.

Laser Mole Removal

For removing small, flat moles, we employ laser energy. This less invasive method requires prior evaluation by a skin specialist to rule out skin cancer, ensuring safe and appropriate treatment.

Our expert team will guide you through choosing the most suitable method, weighing each option’s benefits and drawbacks.


Care After Mole Removal

After removing a mole, we dress the wound and give detailed aftercare instructions to foster optimal healing. The recovery process will differ based on the chosen removal method, but we pledge full support throughout your healing journey.
