Things About Mole Removal Surgery
Before opting for mole removal surgery
speak with your doctor or dermatologist regarding which mole you
would like removed, the procedure that will be used (depends on
the type of mole), healing times, total costs etc. If you are
not comfortable with the procedure he recommends, ask for other
alternatives. Make sure that you wear loose clothing covering
the area to be worked on as to prevent rubbing after the surgery. Here
is some questions you should know the answers to...
1. How Does The Mole Get Prepared For
Surgery?
The area around the mole that is to be removed
will be cleansed and sterilized. An anesthetic will be applied
to numb the area.
2. What Are The Different Methods Of
Surgery?
Depending on the mole, there are a few different
procedures that can be done.
Excision Method with Stitches: This
method is more typically used for moles that are potentially cancerous.
A medical blade is used to remove the mole and the surrounding
skin as well as the underlying in the shape of an oval. The size
surrounding the mole that will be cut out depends on the concern
of the surgeon for the mole being removed. Stitches are then received
on the upper surface of the skin, which will need to be removed
later, or to the underlying tissue which will dissolve and will
not need to be removed.
Cauterization: Using a cautery
tool, the mole is burned away. No stitches are required as the
mole has been burn-sutured.
Shaving Method: This method
is most commonly used for protruding moles. It is not the method
of choice for atypical moles as it may leave mole cells beneath
the skin, which in turn can cause the mole to grow back. The mole
is lifted and removed with the scalpel, leaving the area flush
with the surrounding skin. Next, an electrical instrument is used
to cauterize or burn the area to stop bleeding. Afterwards, a
topical antibiotic is applied to the wound to reduce the risk
of infection. Last, a bandage is placed on the wound.
3. How Long Does It Take To Recover?
The amount of pain and discomfort associated
with the healing process of mole removal varies due to the type
of surgery performed. The area should be cleaned twice a day with
water or diluted hydrogen peroxide followed by applying an antibiotic
ointment that does not contain neomycin. (many people develop
a rash due to being allergic to this product) The wound should
be kept covered until healed. A scab might develop during this
time which should heal within a week or two. Any pain or discomfort
after surgery should be mild and can be offset with over the counter
pain medications.
4. What are the risks?
Infection: If precautions are
taken in the doctors office this risk is minimal, however, infection
can occur if the wound is not cared for correctly at home after
the surgery.
Scars: A very common after-effect
of surgical mole removal is scarring. These scars can range from
just a line, to an oval shape depending on the type of method
used and the amount of skin and tissue removed. Scars will fade
somewhat over time but for quicker results skin resurfacing or
other scar procedures can be undergone.
5. How much does mole removal cost?
The fees for surgically removing a mole vary
according to the doctor, mole size, method used, geographical
location, etc. but typically range from $125-$150. These prices
are non inclusive of anesthesia, operating room facility or any
other associated costs. Most medical insurance providers do not
cover mole removal as it is classified under the cosmetic surgery
category. Financing options are sometimes available for mole
removal surgery.
