Almost everyone develops moles or skin tags at some point. While most are harmless, they can sometimes be irritating, cosmetically unappealing, or located where they snag on clothing or jewelry. In some cases, moles may also show changes that warrant medical evaluation to rule out skin cancer.
If you’re bothered by the appearance or discomfort of these growths, Mole and Skin Tag Removal offers a safe, effective solution. Modern techniques allow for quick, minimally invasive removal with minimal discomfort and little to no downtime.
Treatments are performed conveniently in-office here at Robinson Facial Plastic Surgery in Aliso Viejo.
Both moles and tags can be easily removed in-office using precise techniques that minimize scarring and promote fast healing.
Small clusters of pigmented skin cells that can appear flat or raised, ranging from flesh-toned to dark brown. Most are benign but should be monitored for changes in size, shape or color.
Soft, flesh-colored growths that commonly appear on the neck, eyelids, armpits or under the breasts. They’re completely harmless but can be bothersome or unsightly.
Removal is a simple outpatient procedure performed under local anesthesia for comfort, typically taking 15 to 30 minutes depending on the number and size of the growths. Your specialist evaluates the area and chooses the best method for your skin type and the lesion’s characteristics.
The mole or tag is carefully shaved off the skin’s surface using a surgical blade.
Liquid nitrogen is used to freeze and remove the lesion.
A focused laser beam vaporizes the growth with minimal impact on surrounding tissue.
For deeper moles, a small incision removes the entire growth, often followed by a few tiny sutures.
If there’s any concern about a mole’s nature, the removed tissue may be sent for a biopsy to ensure it’s benign.
Recovery is generally quick and straightforward. You may experience mild redness, swelling or scabbing at the treatment site, which usually resolves within a few days to a week. Most patients can return to work or normal activities immediately — and once healed, you’ll notice smoother, clearer skin, in most cases with no visible scarring.
