What Is a Mole?

Moles are common skin growths made up of pigmented cells (melanocytes). Most are completely harmless and present from birth or develop over time through sun exposure. They can be flat or raised, smooth or rough, and range in colour from pink to dark brown.

You may want mole removal if your mole:

• Has changed in size, shape, or colour
• Is itchy, bleeding, or crusting
• Catches on clothing or jewellery
• Affects your confidence

Important: While most moles are benign, any mole that changes rapidly should be assessed by a clinician before removal. At Canova Medical, every patient receives a thorough clinical assessment as a first step.

How Mole Removal Works at Canova Medical

Step 1 — Consultation Your doctor will examine the mole, discuss your concerns, and recommend the most appropriate removal method. If there are any concerns about the appearance of the mole, you’ll be advised accordingly before proceeding.

Step 2 — Treatment Depending on the mole’s size, depth, and location, removal is carried out using:

• Treatments excision — the mole is cut out and the skin closed with fine sutures. Ideal for raised or deeper moles.
• Shave excision — the mole is shaved flush with the skin surface. Suitable for superficial, raised moles.

A local anaesthetic is applied first, so the procedure is comfortable throughout.

Step 3 — Aftercare You’ll leave with clear written aftercare instructions and a follow-up plan. Most patients are back to their normal routine the same day.

Before & After Expectations

Before treatment: You’ll have a full clinical consultation. Avoid blood-thinning medications (where safe to do so) in the days before your appointment — your doctor will advise.

Immediately after: The area may be slightly red and tender. A small dressing will be applied.

Healing: Most wounds heal within 1–3 weeks. Some redness or a faint scar may be visible initially, which typically fades over several months.
