Mole Excisions

Moles are common skin growths that can appear anywhere on the body. These small, dark brown spots result from clusters of pigmented cells. While most moles are harmless, some may become bothersome or pose health risks, particularly if they change in size, colour, or shape.

At FACEMED, we offer professional lesion removal treatments with our Nurse Practitioner and/or our Consultant Plastic Surgeons (depending on the mole) to safely and effectively eliminate unwanted moles, enhancing both your appearance and peace of mind. Contact us today to schedule your consultation and take the first step towards clearer, healthier skin.

What Causes Moles?

Moles are primarily caused by genetic factors and sun exposure. Here are some common causes:

Genetics:

Many moles are hereditary, passed down through families.

Sun Exposure:

Ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun can increase the number of moles and cause existing ones to darken.

Hormonal Changes:

Changes in hormone levels, especially during puberty and pregnancy, can lead to the development of new moles or changes in existing ones.

Removal:

"Fantastic dentist"

I hadn’t been to the dentist for year as i’ve always been too scared!! I plucked up the courage after Dr Ketan Sheth treated my 9 and 11 year old children and they were fine. Can honestly say now I don’t know why I didn’t go sooner. Dr Ketan Sheth is a fantastic dentist and all the staff and the surgery as a whole there is 5 star! Thank you for all your help and see you in 6 months.

"Immaculately Clean"

I have been using FACEMED for a number of years now for natural, painless Botox injections. A few years ago I decided to also have Blepharoplasty Eyelid Surgery. The clinic has its own operating theatre for the Consultant Plastic Surgeon to perform surgery, the results were perfect. FACEMED is immaculately clean, the staff are professional and helpful and Monica is an absolute expert in her field.

Monica is professional, thorough and honest and puts you at ease. I absolutely wouldn’t trust anyone else. The results are always very natural. The clinic is beautifully clean and always smells amazing! If I ever decide to go further than my regular ‘tweakments’ FACEMED will absolutely be my first port of call.
