Mole Removal
Safe, precise removal for medical or cosmetic reasons
Most moles are harmless, but a dermatologist may recommend removal if a lesion appears suspicious. Moles can also be removed for cosmetic reasons when they affect confidence or catch on clothing.
Once the area is numb, removal is typically quick — whether by surgical excision or shaving. Mild stinging or burning can occur for a few days afterward. A primary advantage of surgical mole removal is that your doctor may perform testing to determine whether the mole contains skin cancer.
Like any part of the skin, a mole can become infected. Warning signs include bleeding, pain, fever, redness or swelling, and discharge of pus — seek care promptly if these appear. Visit Dr. Asmita Jha in Mulund for assessment and removal for patients from Mulund, Bhandup, and Thane.
Frequently asked questions about Mole Removal
Will mole removal leave a scar?
Any skin procedure can leave a small mark. Technique and aftercare are chosen to keep scarring as discreet as possible.
Is mole removal done under anaesthesia?
Yes — local anaesthesia is typically used so the area is numb. The procedure itself is usually quick once the site is prepared.
When should a mole be checked by a dermatologist?
Seek assessment for moles that change in size, shape, or colour; bleed; itch persistently; or look different from your other moles. Cosmetic irritation from rubbing is another common reason to visit.
Can removed moles be tested?
When clinically appropriate, tissue can be sent for laboratory testing. Dr. Asmita Jha explains when this is recommended during your consultation.
How long is recovery after mole removal?
Mild stinging or sensitivity can last a few days. You receive wound-care instructions and guidance on when to return if healing concerns arise.
