Who this page is for
Moles, warts, and skin growths are removed for different reasons — appearance, irritation, or medical caution. All three start the same way: a doctor actually looking at the growth.
A mole you want gone
A facial mole that bothers you in photos, or one that catches on clothing or shaving — removable, usually in one visit.
A mole that has changed
Changing size, colour, or shape needs medical assessment first. Most changed moles are harmless — but that is a doctor's call, not a guess.
Warts that keep spreading
Viral warts on hands, feet, or face often multiply if untreated — clearing them properly stops the cycle.
Burned before at a beauty parlour
A previous non-medical removal left a scar or the growth came back — you want it handled properly this time.
— What this involves
How doctor-led mole and wart removal works
Every removal starts with a medical assessment. The doctor examines the growth — its type, depth, and location — and checks for any features that warrant caution. This is the step a beauty parlour cannot legally or safely do, and it is the reason moles should be removed in a clinic: the rare mole that matters medically must be recognised, not vapourised.
The removal method is matched to the growth. Shallow moles and warts are typically removed by precision radiofrequency or electrocautery under local anaesthesia — a quick, controlled procedure with a small scab that heals over one to two weeks. Deeper moles may need a minor surgical excision. Choosing the right method for the growth's depth and location is what determines how cleanly it heals.
The procedure itself is fast — many removals take minutes once the area is numb. You walk out with simple aftercare instructions: keep the spot clean, avoid picking the scab, and protect the new skin from sun so it blends evenly with the surrounding tone.
What determines the cost? The number of growths, their size and depth, and the removal method needed. We do not publish prices — WhatsApp us a photo of the mole or wart and we can usually tell you what removal would involve, followed by a personalised written quote at your assessment.

Common questions
Any removal leaves some mark initially — the goal is a mark that fades into the surrounding skin. Outcome depends on the growth's depth, the method used, your skin's healing tendency, and aftercare. Shallow radiofrequency removals on the face generally heal very discreetly. Your doctor will give you a realistic expectation for your specific mole before removing it.
We do not publish prices because the quote depends on the number of growths, their size and depth, and the method needed. WhatsApp us a photo and we can usually indicate what removal would involve; a personalised written quote follows your assessment.
The only real discomfort is the local anaesthetic injection — a brief sting. The removal itself is painless once the area is numb, and most spots feel mildly tender for a day or two afterwards.
Warning features include rapid change in size or colour, irregular borders, uneven colour, bleeding, or itching — but the honest answer is that assessment is a doctor's job. Most changed moles turn out harmless; the assessment exists to catch the exception. If anything looks concerning, appropriate referral is arranged.
Warts are caused by a virus, so recurrence is possible even after complete removal — especially if other warts remain untreated elsewhere on the body. Treating all visible warts and following aftercare reduces the risk substantially. Stubborn or recurrent warts sometimes need more than one session.
