What is it?
Our dermatologists provide safe, precise removal of benign moles, cysts, skin tags, lipomas and other skin lesions using the most appropriate technique for each case — surgical excision, laser ablation or radiofrequency. All removed lesions are sent for histopathological analysis if clinically indicated.
How does it work?
Following clinical assessment, the appropriate removal technique is selected. Most removals are performed under local anaesthetic as an outpatient procedure. Surgical specimens are sent for analysis where required.
