Moles
About Moles
A collection of skin pigment cells called melanoctyes. They are typically small, dark marks on the skin and found on many parts of the body. They can be flat or raised, smooth or rough and some have hair growing from them. A healthy mole would usually be circular or oval in shape with a smooth edge.
Treatments for Moles
Absolute Aesthetics undertakes a wide range of treatment options for many different conditions. Our clinicians will advise on the treatment[s] that are most suited to you.
Advanced Electrolysis Treatment
This is a popular and very effective treatment used for the safe removal of common skin lesions. It is a simple and straightforward technique that requires no surgical involvement or downtime to the patient. It can be used to treat numerous skin conditions which many people have accepted nothing can be done to remove them and have been advised they are harmless. Very often these conditions are considered more of a cosmetic condition caused by age, lifestyle, sun damage and genetics.
Mole Screening
Mole screening is the most advanced method for early diagnosis of skin cancer. With a medical camera, microscopic photos of your at-risk moles are captured. Additionally, overview images of the body are captured to localise the moles and find them again at follow-up visits. The mole images can be measured, analysed and stored in a digital database. At follow-up examinations mole images are taken again and compared side by side to detect even the slightest changes and therefore possible skin cancer at an early stage.
Surgical Excision
The removal of any suspicious or unsightly moles, lumps or bumps by a Consultant Surgeon, this can usually be done within 1 working day. If required, histology can also be arranged (laboratory examination of lump to check it).
