Mole Removal FAQ in Oak Brook, IL

Do moles grow back?

Mole cells can cause the mole to regrow on the skin into its original shape and size. Do not assume that mole regrowth is a sign of cancer. Noncancerous moles have the same chance of regrowth as cancerous moles do. To prevent a mole from growing back, the entire thing must be removed.

What happens if mole biopsy is positive?

Generally, after a patient receives positive melanoma results, his or her doctors will need to proceed with staging the malignancy— which essentially means determining the extent of the cancer—and developing a treatment plan based on how far the cancer has progressed.

Which cream is best for mole removal?

H-Moles Formula. Dr. Scholl’s Freeze Away Wart Remover. Hahnemann Pharma Thuja Ointment. Pureauty Naturals Skin Tag And Mole Cream. Dr. King’s Natural Medicine Skin Tag Remover. Skinprov Mole And Skin Tag Corrector. Wartosin Wart Remover. Quita Verrugas Skin Tag Remover.

Can I remove my own mole?

Between the cosmetic risks, potential for incorrect removal and very real risk of not properly addressing a dangerous skin cancer, Dr. Sarnoff says trying to remove a mole at home is highly inadvisable. “I would never recommend at-home mole or skin tag removal,” she says.

Why am I getting more moles as I get older?

You can also develop moles during childhood and early adulthood. Sun exposure and other drivers behind aging skin can lead to nevi as an older adult. Some moles can become cancerous, but the majority are harmless — this is why it’s important to always get a dermatologist’s take on any moles in question.

What size mole should be removed?

As a general rule, a healthy mole should be no more than 6mm in diameter, or about the size of the width of a pencil eraser. If you have a mole that is noticeably larger than this, schedule an appointment with your physician.

How long does mole surgery take?

A mole removal process can take anywhere from 10 minutes to 1 hour depending on the size and depth of the mole. Stitches may remain for 2-4 weeks post-removal.

Is removing a mole a good idea?

Results for the majority of patients are permanent, and our patients find that they are able to enjoy life to the fullest after the removal of a noticeable or suspicious mole.

Is it worth removing a mole?

Moles can become cancerous and, if this condition is not diagnosed quickly, the affected cells can spread to other parts of the body. Mole removal can prevent the spread of cancerous and pre-cancerous cells and address your cosmetic concerns in one simple procedure.

What is the fastest way to get rid of a mole on your face?

Most moles can be removed quickly by numbing the skin around the mole with a local anaesthetic and cutting away the lesion. This is performed as an outpatient procedure, and you will be able to leave once the wound has been stitched.

Can you remove moles by yourself?

Between the cosmetic risks, potential for incorrect removal and very real risk of not properly addressing a dangerous skin cancer, Dr. Sarnoff says trying to remove a mole at home is highly inadvisable. “I would never recommend at-home mole or skin tag removal,” she says.
