There can be a number of factors that lead to get a mole removal done. Cosmetic reason and medical reason are two of the most popular ones. Whatever may be the reason, it is essential to know all the details about the procedures of removal. One should also get the mole checked before removing it. This is simply due to the fact that some of the moles have a potential to cause melanoma, which is a form of skin cancer. When normal moles are continuously exposed to ultraviolet rays they tend to become cancerous.
A constant check thus needs to be kept on the mole to detect any kind of abnormalities as soon as possible. Lack of symmetry is first among the various abnormalities. The moles which are not malignant are often symmetric. The probability of the mole being cancerous increases, if any kind of asymmetry is observed in it. In comparison to the normal moles, the moles which are not normal often have an irregular border.
Normal moles are usually black or brown in color. If one observes their moles to have a mix of colors, then it is not considered to be normal. Size is yet another factor that describes the nature of the mole. This is because normal moles do not start growing large all of a sudden. Looking out for the appearance of any kind of lumps on the surface of the mole is also necessary as it is also a sign of abnormality.
Surgical procedures are often preferred for mole treatment because of medical reasons. Once any of the above abnormalities have been observed, a doctor needs to be seen. A doctor is the best person to recommend the most effective treatment option based on the size and the location of the mole.
The surgical procedure consists of a lot of methods. Excision of the mole can be considered to be one of them. It is usually done with the help of a scalpel. Before actually implementing the technique the region where the mole is present ought to be cleaned. Based on the size of the mole, the requirement of an anesthesia is decided. Stitches are applied to the area after the removal of the mole. The removal of the stitches is not required as they get dissolved within a fortnight.
Cauterization is yet another frequently used technique. A cautery tool is actually used to burn the mole in this technique. Stitches are not needed in this method, thus giving it an advantage over the one stated before. Laser mole removal is also one of the most widely used techniques. Having said that, this method cannot be used to remove moles that are large in size. The reason behind this being that the laser beam does not have the ability to go very deep into the skin.
One of the biggest disadvantages of the surgical methods is that it is very costly. The surgical methods are however needed to be used for removing moles due to medical reasons.
