What Are Moles?
Moles are common skin growth which are generally quite harmless. These are often found on the face, neck and any other part of the body. Most moles do not need treatment. You could try make up to help hide it. If you have a hair growing from a mole, you might try clipping it close to the skin surface or plucking it. However, if a mole bothers you or if you notice suspicious changes in it, contact your dermatologist or aesthetic physician to remove it.
Why Remove Moles?
Mole removal may be necessary due to the following 2 reasons:
- cosmetic concerns – many individuals want to remove moles for aesthetic purposes. Moles which are large, raised or located in highly visible areas may have a negative impact on one’s self-confidence.
- medical reason – certain moles can pose health risks. Monitoring them for any signs of potential skin cancer such as melanoma is crucial. Early detection and removal of suspicious moles can significantly increase the chance of successful treatment.
Types of Mole Removal Procedures in Malaysia
Mole removal is a quick procedure usually done on an outpatient basis. The 3 types of mole removal procedures are as follows:
Excisional Surgery
This procedure involves cutting out the mole and then stitching the surrounding skin. This excisional surgery is usually used for removing larger moles or those suspected of being cancerous. Local anaesthesia is administered to ensure the patient’s comfort during the procedure.
Shave Excision
This method is suitable for raised moles that do not penetrate too deeply into the skin. Using a scalpel or a specialized device, the mole is carefully shaved off. Stitches may or may not be needed depending on the depth of the mole.
Laser Removal
This is usually used for the removal of smaller, non-cancerous moles. The laser targets only the pigmented cells, breaking them down and gradually allowing the body’s natural healing process to remove the mole.
Mole Removal Malaysia Price
The price of mole removal is reasonable and affordable. However, it can range from as low as RM80 per mole to RM2000 per mole. The actual price will depend on the size and the depth of the mole. It also depends greatly on the type of removal procedure used. For instance, shaving is usually the cheapest method. On the other hand, excisional surgery and laser removal are more costly.
