Mole Removal
Moles, while common, are often seen as small imperfections that can affect one’s confidence, especially when located in visible areas. Though generally harmless, some individuals seek mole removal for aesthetic reasons or peace of mind.
Modern mole removal techniques make it easier than ever to safely and effectively remove unwanted moles, allowing you to embrace clearer, smoother skin. Discover how a professional approach towards mole removal can help you look and feel your best.
What is a Mole?
Moles are common skin growths that can appear anywhere on the body, caused by the rapid increase of melanocytes. Often made of small, pigmented spots that can be flat or raised, they are a natural part of the skin that are either congenital or acquired.
While typically harmless, moles might warrant medical attention in some cases where they change in size, shape, and colour or cause discomfort. A harmless mole is consistent in appearance and does not show unusual growth or symptoms.
Causes of Moles
The main cause of moles is the rapid increase of melanocytes clusters in the skin, which is the cell responsible for producing melanin. However, other factors can cause moles to develop in the skin, which are:
Genetics
Sun Exposure
Hormonal Changes
Mole Removal Procedures and Techniques
There are many ways to perform mole removal procedures, from invasive to non-invasive ones. At GTS Dermatology, we offer the best mole removal procedures and techniques, such as:
- Mole Removal Laser Treatment: This treatment targets the unwanted tissue with focused laser energy, effectively removing the growth while minimising damage to the surrounding skin.
- Cryosurgery: This technique uses extreme cold to freeze and destroy abnormal or damaged tissue, gradually causing the targeted tissue to die off and be replaced by healthy skin.
- Electrosurgery: This dermatological procedure uses high-frequency electrical currents to cut, coagulate, or destroy abnormal skin tissue with minimal damage to surrounding tissue.
- Surgical Excision: This procedure, done under local anaesthesia, involves carefully cutting out the mole and a margin of healthy tissue to ensure complete removal and prevent recurrence.

While moles removed professionally by dermatologists are permanently removed, in some cases, they might grow back. When this happens, contact your dermatologist for assistance.
Removing a mole can leave a scar, but it can be minimal and fade away with time and care depending on the size and technique used.
