MOLE REMOVAL




A dermatologist can remove a mole with procedures including freezing and excision. The method can vary depending on the size, location, and whether they suspect it is cancerous.


Moles are common skin growths. You probably have more than one on your face and body. Most people have 10 to 40 moles somewhere on their skin, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.

Most moles are harmless and nothing to worry about. Unless a mole is cancerous, you don’t need to have it removed unless it bothers you. But if you don’t like the way it affects your appearance, or if it’s getting irritated from rubbing against your clothes, removing the mole is still an option.





Meanwhile, you should schedule a checkup with your dermatologist if you notice any moles that:

are asymmetrical

have irregular borders

are not uniform in color

have a diameter that’s larger than a pencil eraser

are evolving or changing in size, shape, or color
