Mole removal procedure, results & recovery

During surgical excision, the doctor uses a blade or scalpel to cut the mole out of its location on the body as well as some of the skin surrounding the mole. Stiches are used to close the wound. A surgical shave is used on smaller moles as the doctor uses a small surgical bade to shave the mole out of the skin along with some of the tissue under the mole. Stitches are not necessary to close the wound. Laser removal involves bursts of light radiation being directed towards the mole. The laser light breaks down the skin cells that form the mole. Thanks to the precision of the laser light, only the mole is removed and none of the surrounding tissue is damaged. Freezing a mole, AKA cryotherapy, is when liquid nitrogen is used to freeze and destroy moles located on the surface of the skin. It takes about 10-14 days after the treatment for the mole to leave the body by falling off.
