WHY CHOOSE CAROLINA FACIAL PLASTICS FOR MOLE REMOVAL IN CHARLOTTE
FAQ
What's the difference between electrodesiccation and liquid nitrogen for mole removal?
Electrodesiccation uses an electric current to destroy the lesion with cautery or heat, while liquid nitrogen freezes the tissue. Electrodesiccation is often preferred for raised moles and offers immediate results, while liquid nitrogen is excellent for flatter lesions and multiple treatments. Your provider will recommend the best method based on your specific lesion type and location.
How many treatments will I need for mole removal?
Most moles and skin lesions can be removed in 1-2 sessions. However, depending on the size of the treatment area, a second application may be needed. Larger or more complex lesions may require 2-3 sessions for complete removal. During your consultation, we’ll provide a realistic treatment plan based on your specific needs.
Is mole removal painful?
The discomfort level is minimal with most mole removal techniques. Most patients describe the sensation as brief and tolerable. Electrodesiccation may feel like a quick pinch, while cryotherapy creates a cold, stinging sensation that subsides quickly.
What should I expect during the healing process?
The treated area will become red soon after your procedure. It may also blister and swell. The treated area will heal in about 7 to 14 days. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions, including keeping the area clean, applying recommended ointments, and protecting from sun exposure during healing.
Can all types of moles be removed with these methods?
Most benign moles, skin tags, seborrheic keratoses, and similar lesions can be safely removed with electrodesiccation or liquid nitrogen cryotherapy. If the mole looks precancerous or suspicious, we will refer you to a dermatologist.
Will there be scarring after mole removal?
The risks of bleeding, scarring, and infection from a mole removal are extremely low. One of the major benefits of cryotherapy is that it seldom leaves scarring. Our experienced providers use techniques specifically chosen to minimize scarring risk.
