MOLE REMOVAL

Moles are small, coloured spots on the skin. Most people have them and they’re usually nothing to worry about unless they change size, shape or colour.

Mole removal using Radiowave surgery operates at a frequency of 4.0 Mhz, which is about 4 million cycles per second.This is the optimum wavelength for precise incision with minimal lateral tissue damage. The reason that radiowave surgery is much more tissue friendly than electrosurgery has to do not only with the 4.0 Mhz wavelength but the fact that the electrode tip does not provide the resistance and hence does not get hot. It is the tissue that provides the resistance. Radiowaves are transferred to tissue through an electrode.

 

Pre procedure Mole Removal

Once we have identified the moles as benign the areas are marked with a surgical pen and then the administration of lidocaine 2% lidocaine infiltrated around the base of lesion for complete numbness. 

After the procedures, lesions are covered with sterile dressings or a clear dressing on areas such as the face.  The lesion will undergo re-epithelialisation over the next seven days. By 30 days, the lesion is often indistinguish- able from surrounding skin.

Some moles can be a sign of melanoma, a type of skin cancer.

Signs of melanoma include:

A mole that’s changed colour or has more than 2 colours

A mole with uneven borders

A mole that’s bleeding, itching, crusting or raised

Therefore it is important to get this checked.

It’s important to get a new or existing mole checked out if it:

  • changes shape or looks uneven
  • changes colour, gets darker or has more than 2 colours
  • starts itching, crusting, flaking or bleeding
  • gets larger or more raised from the skin

These changes can happen over weeks or months.
