Small procedures, done properly: examined before removal, removed by the method that suits the lesion, and sent for histology whenever there is any doubt about what it was.
A mole removed at a salon or by cautery without examination destroys the one thing that could have told you what it was. The overwhelming majority of moles are entirely benign — but the way you know that is by examining them with a dermatoscope beforehand and, where there is any doubt, sending the tissue for histology afterwards.
That is the difference between a dermatosurgical removal and a cosmetic one, and it costs very little. Every mole removed here is examined first; anything with atypical features is excised properly rather than destroyed, so it can be examined under a microscope.
The same principle applies more mundanely to warts and skin tags: what looks like a wart is occasionally not, and a lesion that keeps recurring after treatment is a reason to reconsider the diagnosis rather than to repeat the treatment.
| Lesion | Usual approach | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Moles | Excision or shave, after dermatoscopy | Atypical features mean excision with histology |
| Skin tags | Snip or cautery | Quick; often several in one sitting |
| Warts | Cautery, cryotherapy or chemical | Recurrence is common; may need repeat |
| Sebaceous cysts | Excision including the wall | Leaving the wall behind is why they recur |
| Corns and callus | Paring and offloading advice | Recurs unless the pressure cause is addressed |
| Molluscum contagiosum | Extraction or cautery of each lesion | Common in children; spreads by contact and scratching |
| Keloids | Injection-based treatment first | Excising a keloid casually usually makes it worse |
| Dermatosis papulosa nigra | Fine cautery | Common in Indian skin; cosmetic, and treatable |
The keloid row is worth reading twice. In skin prone to keloid formation, cutting one out without adjunctive treatment frequently produces a larger one.
A removed lesion is replaced by a scar. Usually a small flat pale one, sometimes not — and the risk depends on the site, the size and your own healing. Chest, shoulders and the upper back scar less predictably than the face.
So the conversation happens before the procedure: what mark to expect, what the alternatives are including doing nothing, and what would make it worth removing regardless. For a lesion being removed for cosmetic reasons that conversation decides whether to proceed at all.
Where procedures are doneThe same lesion is a different decision on the face than on the shoulder.
For a benign, asymptomatic lesion it is frequently the right one, and it is offered.

On WhatsApp — one number, answered by the clinic team, who confirm a time and say what to bring.
Yes — every removal leaves some mark, usually small, flat and pale. The site matters: chest, shoulders and upper back scar less predictably than the face. This is discussed before the procedure, not after.
The area is numbed with local anaesthetic, so the procedure itself is not painful. There is a sting as the anaesthetic goes in, and mild soreness afterwards for a day or two.
Whenever there is any diagnostic doubt, and always where the lesion is excised for clinical rather than purely cosmetic reasons. This is why removal at a salon is unwise — it destroys the tissue that would have provided the answer.
Warts are viral and recurrence is common — the virus can persist in surrounding skin. Repeated treatment is often needed. A lesion that recurs persistently is also a reason to confirm the diagnosis.
Usually yes. Several can typically be treated in a single sitting under local anaesthetic, and healing is quick.
Almost always because the cyst wall was not completely removed. A cyst has a lining, and if any of it remains the cyst re-forms. Complete excision is the difference.
