Skin Lesion Removal – Raised Moles, Skin Tags, Cherry Angiomas & Warts

We offer a quick painless treatment plan. Visit our Nurse Practitioner for a consultation. During the consultation a dermascope will be used to ensure the lesion is benign. Once the lesion is assessed same day treatment is available. However, please note if lesion is a Raised Mole’ it needs to be checked by GP prior to your appointment for a mole check.

What is a Raised Mole?

Moles can either be flat or raised. Raised moles form due to the melanocytes proliferating between the dermis and epidermis (top and middle layers of skin), which gives the mole a raised or elevated appearance.

What is a Skin Tag?

Skin Tags are soft, skin-coloured growths on the face. They are very common and usually small and harmless.

Skin Tags tend to develop when the skin rubs together, such as armpits, thighs, eyelids and the neck.

What are Warts?

Common Warts usually appear as rough bumps on the skin, they can occur singly or in clusters. Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus and can spread if not treated.

What is a Seborrheic Keratosis?

A Seborrheic Keratosis is a common noncancerous (benign) skin growth caused by an excess build-up of the ordinary skin cells. More common in older people.

What are Cherry Angiomas?

Cherry angiomas are red because they are made up of blood vessels.

They become more common with increasing age and are often found on the chest and back.

What are Verrucas?

Verrucas are warts that occur on the soles of the feet. Warts and Verrucas are caused by a virus. They can spread to other people from contaminated surfaces or through close skin contact. You are more likely to spread a wart of verruca if your skin is wet or damaged.
