Who Can Benefit from Mole, Wart and Oil Seed Removal
Laser removal treats small, harmless skin growths precisely, with no stitches. The doctor examines every growth first. A mole that has changed in size, shape or colour is assessed further before any removal.
| Growth | What it is |
|---|---|
| Moles | Flat or raised brown spots on the face or body |
| Warts | Rough growths caused by a common virus, often on the hands, feet or face |
| Skin tags | Small, soft flaps of skin, often on the neck, underarms or eyelids |
| Oil seeds and milia seeds | Small, firm white or skin-coloured bumps, often around the eyes and cheeks |
Our Two Lasers
We choose between two lasers. The Fotona laser removes growths layer by layer and seals tiny blood vessels, which suits warts and flat lesions. The fractional CO₂ laser suits raised moles and thicker growths.
We postpone treatment during pregnancy, and with an active infection in the area.
Frequently asked questions about mole, wart and oil seed removal
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream is applied first, so most patients feel only a light, warm sting.
How long does healing take?
A small scab forms and falls off within 1 to 2 weeks.
Will it leave a mark?
Small, flat growths usually heal with little or no mark. Deeper or larger moles may leave a small, flat mark that fades over time.
Can they come back?
Treated moles and oil seeds do not usually return. Warts are caused by a virus, so new ones can appear and some patients need a repeat session.
How many can be removed in one visit?
Several, depending on their size and location. The doctor plans this at your consultation.
What aftercare is needed?
Keep the area clean and apply the recovery product we recommend. Let the scab fall off on its own, and protect the area with sunscreen every day while it heals.
