Mole Removal Treatment : Depending on how it appears, a mole can either be a beauty spot or a blemish on the human body. But an unsightly spot is always considered to be a bane for one’s self-confidence. A single mole or a wart causes havoc for the entire personality.

Medically termed as ‘nevi’, skin moles are round or oven in shape and usually appears as dark spots in varying sizes. These spots have more pigment-producing cells than the other areas. They can grow randomly on any part of the body, including the face.

Nowadays, people pay much attention to these moles appearing on their skin and consider them as a major beauty concern. Though moles are harmless, many people consider them as an undesired skin irregularity. The structural changes in a skin mole need an immediate medical attention. Hence, the mole removal treatment has become very common.

A mole is developed on the skin when a group of cells called melanocytes grow in a cluster and produce melanin, a naturally occurring pigment providing skin colour. The sun exposure or the pregnancy may darken the moles.

Normally, a typical mole appears in brown color. However, the color varies from person to person. Understand the following things with regard to the appearance of the skin moles:

1. Colour : The skin moles can be brown, tan, red, pink or black.

2. Shape : The moles appear in round or oval shape.

3. Texture : The moles can be smooth, raised, flat or wrinkled. Some moles have hair grown from them.

4. Size : The moles are usually less than 6 millimeters (about 1/4 inch).

There are many reasons why we would like to remove moles: aesthetically unattractive appearance, to reduce discomfort, when the mole is regularly injured (e.g. while shaving), or if disturbance is related to its localization, when it is rubbed or pressed by clothes. Moles should be removed surgically due to much more serious reasons, i.e. if the mole is atypical and there is a risk of melanoma.

The primary benefit of laser mole removal is that it is noninvasive. Because there is no cutting or burning of the skin, the risk of infection is significantly reduced.

Lasers are also able to reach areas of the body such as the face or nose that may be difficult to treat using other methods. Lastly, multiple moles can be treated during one session.

Results are acceptable even for those who wish to remove moles on visible parts of the body such as on the face or in the neck area.
