Mole removal at Nuffield Health at St Bartholomew's Hospital

What is a mole?

Moles are a form of pigmented lesion. Benign (non cancerous) lesions can simply be left alone. However if your mole bothers you in any way your consultant may recommend removal (excision).

What happens during mole removal?

Moles are usually removed under local anaesthetic. Your consultant will examine and discuss the most suitable method of removing your mole(s).

The mole(s) will then be sent to a lab for analysis following your procedure. Your consultant will confirm when you receive your lab results.

Recovery from mole removal

You should be able to go home very soon after your procedure. If you experience any pain following your mole removal, over the counter pain relief can be used.

Your consultant will discuss your follow up care, which will be arranged prior to your discharge
