Treatment Options:

The following methods are considered while undergoing the treatment:

Excision:

Using a knife or special surgical scissors, excision, also known as cutting, includes removing the mole and a small skin margin. 

Your doctor will inject a topical anesthetic into the mole before cutting it out to make the removal process as painless as possible. Your doctor may need to use stitches to heal the wound after removing your mole if it has grown deep into the skin.

Surgical Removal:

A mole excision is akin to the surgical removal of a mole. Your doctor will shave off layers of the mole with a knife until it is gone. 

Your doctor will give you a local anesthetic to numb the region so you don’t feel any discomfort before shaving. After this sort of mole removal, stitches are typically not required, but the skin may have a little pink area where the mole used to be.

Laser Mole Removal:

Lasers can be used to treat certain moles. This is most typically done on non-cancerous moles that are tiny and flat. Your doctor will utilize bursts of light radiation to remove the mole tissue during laser removal. 

Laser therapy may require two or three treatments to eliminate a mole. If moles are in difficult-to-reach places, such as the ears, or on sensitive or highly visible skin regions, such as the face, laser treatment may be a viable alternative. Lasers can also be used to remove many moles simultaneously.

Freezing:

Non-cancerous moles that only exist on the skin’s surface can be frozen away. If you and your doctor decide that freezing your mole is the best way to get rid of it, your doctor will use liquid nitrogen to accomplish it. You can have a little blister where the mole is on your skin.
