Moles are raised blemishes on the skin caused by a high concentration of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. While most moles are harmless, they can sometimes become bothersome or a health concern, especially if they change in size, shape, or color over time. Factors such as hormonal changes during pregnancy or prolonged sun exposure can cause moles to darken.
Mole removal can be done for health, cosmetic, or comfort reasons, using techniques like cauterization or surgical excision.
Cauterization Procedure At Dr. Miglani's Smiling Faces Dentistry & Aesthetics, We use cauterization as one of the most effective methods for mole removal. This procedure minimizes the chances of moles growing back and ensures optimal outcomes.
The area around the mole is sterilized and numbed using local anesthetic injections for your comfort.
In cases where health concerns arise, a biopsy may be performed to assess the mole.
Skin tags are small, soft, skin-coloured growths often mistaken for warts. They are made of loose collagen fibres and are harmless but can be unsightly or uncomfortable. At Smiling Faces, we remove skin tags using similar methods as mole removal, such as cauterization or freezing. Surgical removal is also an option, sometimes under local anaesthesia, for quick and effective results.
