What you need to know about mole removal?

 Moles are benign formations that can be either congenital or acquired. They can be located on any part of the skin, on the face, arms, back, etc. Depending on the type, they can be light, dark brown or black.

They can be congenital and acquired. The appearance of moles is associated with increased activity of skin cells in which the pigment melanin is produced. In addition, their appearance may be associated with hormonal changes in the body, as well as with some diseases.

In most cases, they do not bother a person at all and do not pose any danger, but sometimes they can cause a cosmetic defect or even discomfort. That is why many people try to get rid of them.

Painless removal of moles is a rather serious procedure that requires preparation and a series of examinations. It must be understood that the sooner you see a doctor, the more likely it is that the nevus can be removed painlessly and without further complications.

How are moles removed?

There are several ways to remove moles. The removal method depends on the location and size of the nevus, as well as on the individual characteristics of the human body.

1. Surgery. It can be carried out both in a cosmetology room and in a clinic. The operation is performed under local anesthesia. The postoperative period lasts from 3 to 5 days.
2. laser therapy. Laser mole removal is a safe and effective method that allows you to do everything quickly and painlessly. During the procedure, a laser beam is directed to the nevus, which evaporates it. At the same time, no traces remain on the skin.
3. Radiosurgery. This is a painless removal of neoplasms, which is carried out using a special apparatus.
4. Ultrasonic removal. It is used for small nevi. This method involves the use of ultrasound, with the help of which the destruction of the mole occurs.

Cryo-destruction. This is also one of the most modern and effective ways to remove a neoplasm. The procedure consists in applying special liquid nitrogen to the mole. Under the influence of low temperatures, a rapid breakdown of cells occurs, as a result of which the neoplasm dies.
