Mole & Skin Tag Removal with Laser
Laser mole and skin tag removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses focused light energy to safely and precisely remove unwanted skin growths. This method is commonly used for benign moles, skin tags, and other superficial skin lesions. The laser targets the pigment or water in the lesion, effectively breaking down the tissue without damaging the surrounding skin.
How Does It Work?
A specialized medical-grade laser emits a concentrated beam of light that:
For moles: targets the melanin (pigment) in the mole, breaking it down so the body can naturally absorb and eliminate the pigment over time.
For skin tags: cuts off the blood supply and gently removes the tag without the need for cutting or stitching.
The procedure is quick, generally lasting 10–30 minutes depending on the size and number of lesions.
Healing Time
Initial healing: 5 to 10 days for the top layer of skin to scab and fall off naturally.
Full skin recovery: 2 to 4 weeks for the skin tone and texture to even out.
Most clients return to daily activities immediately after the treatment, though mild redness or sensitivity may occur.
Post-Treatment Care
To ensure optimal healing and results:
Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 2 weeks.
Apply SPF 30+ sunscreen daily on the treated area.
Do not pick or scratch scabs—let them fall off naturally.
Keep the area clean and moisturized with a gentle, non-irritating cream.
Avoid hot showers, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 48 hours.
Benefits of Laser Removal
Non-invasive: No cutting, stitches, or significant downtime.
Precision: Only the targeted lesion is affected.
Minimal scarring: Compared to surgical removal, laser treatment often leaves minimal to no visible scarring.
Fast & effective: Quick in-office treatment with long-lasting results.
Cosmetic improvement: Enhances skin’s appearance and smoothness.
Is It Safe for Everyone?
Laser removal is safe for most skin types and tones. However, not all moles or lesions are suitable for laser treatment—suspicious or changing moles may require medical evaluation or biopsy first. A consultation is necessary to assess your skin and determine the best approach.
