Mole Check & Mole Removal

At Kirbha Clinic, we provide expert, consultant-led mole removal in London, Essex and East of England ensuring safe and precise care close to home. The procedure is performed by Mr Bhagwat Mathur, a Senior Consultant Plastic Surgeon with over 40 years of specialist experience.

Moles are very common skin growths – brown, black, or pink in colour, which can be flat or raised – that can be present from birth as a birthmark, or develop later in life. While most moles are harmless, certain changes in size, shape, or colour should be professionally assessed; it may indicate the early development of skin cancer, including melanoma. Early evaluation supports both safe removal and long-term skin health. Our consultant-led approach ensures safe, precise, and aesthetic removal.

The procedure typically involves careful excision under local anaesthetic, with techniques selected based on mole size, location, and complexity. For smaller moles, straightforward shave excision may be used, leaving minimal scarring. Larger or more complex moles may require full-thickness elliptical excision with suturing, with some cases requiring skin flaps or skin grafts for optimal coverage and cosmetic results. Any suspected lesion is sent for histopathological analysis to confirm the diagnosis and ensure complete removal.

Every procedure is performed meticulously, ensuring both safety and the best possible aesthetic outcome. Patients seeking mole removal in London, Essex, and surrounding regions benefit from Mr Mathur’s decades of surgical experience, with same-day consultation and treatment available to help reduce delays and provide peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions

Are there any side effects of mole removal?

Following mole removal, minor swelling, redness, or tenderness around the incision site is normal. Serious complications are uncommon. Mr Mathur ensures careful technique and thorough pre-operative assessment to minimise risks and ultimate scarring. Any sutures used are typically removed within 7-10 days, and patients receive clear aftercare instructions. Regular follow-up ensures that healing progresses safely and any concerns are promptly addressed.

Will mole removal be painful?

Procedures are performed under local anaesthetic, ensuring that the area is completely numb. Most patients experience only minor discomfort during the procedure, which can be managed with simple pain relief. Mr Mathur takes particular care to make the procedure as comfortable as possible, with gentle technique and careful tissue handling.

How should I care for the wound after mole removal?

Aftercare is crucial to minimise infection and promote speedy healing. Patients are advised to keep the area clean and dry, follow instructions on dressing changes, and avoid strenuous activity that could strain the site. Sun protection and use of moisturiser on the scar is important to prevent pigmentation, itching, and hypertrophy of the scar. Mr Mathur provides a detailed personalised aftercare plan and is available for follow-up if concerns arise. With correct care, the treated area heals well with excellent cosmetic outcomes.

Can mole removal prevent skin cancer?

While most moles are benign, some are dysplastic and may develop into melanoma or other skin cancers. Early assessment and removal of suspicious moles can be preventative. Mr Mathur’s expertise allows accurate evaluation and safe excision of high-risk moles. Removed tissue is sent for histopathological analysis to ensure any abnormalities are identified promptly.
