Mole Removal Techniques
Although mole removal in Dubai is essential for people who have developed melanoma, many others opt for it because they do not like the appearance of moles on their bodies. If the mole is located somewhere on the body where it isn’t visible, it may not be a major concern. However, for those who have moles on the face, neck, arms, or other visible areas, it can be an irritant.
People with cancerous moles can only undergo surgical mole removal. However, people wanting mole removal for cosmetic reasons can opt for any of the following techniques.
- Excision – It is a surgical procedure in which the surgeon cuts the mole out entirely by using a scalpel. Some bordering good skin is also removed in the procedure. After that, the physician cauterizes or uses stitches to close the wound back. Excision is usually done for larger moles and results in instant mole removal.
- Laser Treatment – A mole that is flat, black, or brown in color can be most effectively removed through a laser treatment. The procedure involves applying local anesthesia to the area where the mole is found and using laser beams to remove the mole tissues. Usually, two to three treatment sessions are needed to get rid of the mole completely. However, laser mole removal Dubai isn’t appropriate for moles that are very large or protrude above the skin.
- Cryotherapy (Freezing) – This is a very quick treatment during which a medical professional applies a special solution (usually argon gas or liquid nitrogen) to the mole, either through a spray device, injection, or a cotton swab. As a result, ice crystals begin to form within the mole, breaking up the mole tissue cells and causing no damage to the surrounding skin cells. The mole usually vanishes, leaving behind no trail of scarring.

Procedure
Mole removal in Dubai is usually performed on an outpatient basis, and takes less than 15 to 20 mint to complete, depending on the number of moles. Your surgeon will first examine the mole to make sure it isn’t cancerous (The majority of the moles are benign and pose no threat to health). Then depending on the type of technique, you have opted for, you’ll go through the following steps.
- The first step of the procedure is to administer anesthesia. Your surgeon will apply local anesthesia to the targeted site to reduce pain and discomfort.
- If you have opted for surgical excision, the surgeon will use a scalpel to cut the mole from the base, with a bit of the surrounding skin as well. For laser mole removal, the procedure is slightly different as the surgeon uses a laser beam to kill the mole cells.
- Once the mole is removed, stitches are placed either deep within the skin or on the upper surface to close the wound back.
- If the removal is incomplete, the procedure may be repeated to get rid of the mole completely. For laser mole removal, particularly, you’ll require two to three treatment sessions before the mole vanishes completely.
