Laser for Mole & Skin Tag Removal

Moles and skin tags are both types of skin growths that are usually benign (non-cancerous) and typically do not require treatment unless they are causing discomfort or for cosmetic reasons.

What are the options for mole & skin tag removal?
Fractional CO2 Laser mole and skin tag removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses a high-intensity laser beam to target and removes moles and skin tags from the surface of the skin. The laser beam heats and destroys the cells within the mole or skin tag, causing it to slough off or be absorbed by the body.
 
Another option is electrocautery, which uses a heated electrical wire to burn and remove the mole or skin tag. The procedure involves the application of an electrical current to the mole or skin tag, causing it to be burned off. The area may then be treated with a topical antibiotic ointment and bandaged.
 
Both treatments are typically performed by a doctors and can be done in-office under local anaesthesia.
 
It is important to note that while both laser and electrocautery removal can be effective, they do not provide a guarantee that the mole or skin tag will not grow back. Additionally, any suspicious growths or changes in existing moles should be evaluated by a qualified medical professional to rule out the possibility of skin cancer.
