Why Remove a Mole?
Treatment Overview
Most moles are harmless, but they can be unwelcome for many reasons: catching on clothing or jewellery, irritation when shaving, or simply their appearance — particularly on the face. NHS treatment is generally unavailable for cosmetic mole removal, so private removal is the practical route for most patients. Any mole that has changed in size, shape or colour should be assessed promptly — we prioritise urgent appointments.
As a plastic surgery-led hospital, our surgeons remove moles with fine suturing and scar-minimising techniques designed for cosmetically sensitive areas such as the face — a key advantage over standard minor-surgery clinics. Every removed lesion can be sent for histological analysis so you know exactly what it was.

What are the Types of Mole Removal?
Mole Removal Techniques
The right technique depends on the type, size and site of your mole, and whether laboratory analysis is required. Your specialist will examine the lesion (with dermoscopy where appropriate) and recommend the best approach.
Surgical Excision
The whole mole is removed with a fine margin and the skin closed with delicate sutures. The standard approach when histology is required or when the mole is raised and fleshy, leaving a fine-line scar that fades over months.
Shave Excision
Raised moles are shaved level with the surrounding skin under local anaesthetic, usually leaving a subtle flat mark. Quick, effective and ideal for benign raised moles. Skin tags and cysts can also be removed in a single visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will mole removal leave a scar?
Any removal leaves some mark, but with plastic surgical technique it is usually a fine line or subtle flat patch that fades over months. Your specialist will show you where the scar will sit before you decide.
Does mole removal hurt?
The only discomfort is the initial local anaesthetic injection, which stings briefly. The removal itself is painless and the area typically heals with minimal soreness.
Should my mole be checked before removal?
Yes — every mole is assessed clinically first, with dermoscopy where appropriate, and we recommend histology so the lesion is analysed in the laboratory. Any mole that has changed should be seen promptly.
How long does the procedure take?
Most mole removals take 15–30 minutes under local anaesthetic. You can drive home afterwards and return to normal activities immediately.
Can I have several moles removed in one visit?
Yes — multiple moles or skin tags can usually be removed in a single appointment, with per-lesion pricing agreed in advance.
Can you remove moles from the face?
Yes — facial moles are our specialty. Our plastic surgeons use fine suturing and scar-minimising techniques designed specifically for cosmetically sensitive areas.
What happens to the mole after removal?
We recommend sending every removed lesion for histological analysis. You receive the result and a clear explanation, giving complete peace of mind about what the mole was.
Will the mole grow back?
Fully excised moles very rarely return. After shave excision a small number can partially regrow over time, which your specialist will explain when recommending the technique.
How should I care for the area afterwards?
Keep the area clean and dry as advised, avoid stretching the skin while it heals, and use sun protection on the scar. We provide full written aftercare guidance.
Can you remove skin tags and cysts too?
Yes — skin tags, cysts and lipomas are removed regularly, usually in a single local anaesthetic appointment.
How much does mole removal cost?
Pricing is per lesion and depends on size, site and technique, plus histology if requested. You receive a clear fixed quote at consultation with no hidden extras. Price for a single mole removal and histology is from £485.
How quickly can I be seen?
We offer fast access — consultation and removal often within days. Changed or suspicious moles are prioritised for urgent assessment.
