Your visit

What happens at a mole removal appointment

You start with a surgical consultation. The consultant assesses the mole and discusses the best approach with you, whether you want it removed for cosmetic reasons or because it needs a diagnosis.

The removal is a precision excision under local anaesthetic, so you should feel no pain during the procedure itself. Most patients describe it as far more comfortable than they expected.

At the appointment

  • The consultant examines the area and agrees the approach with you.
  • Local anaesthetic numbs the skin. You may feel a brief sting as it is injected.
  • Most procedures are completed within 30 to 45 minutes.
  • You leave with post-operative instructions and can return to work or home straight away.
Laboratory analysis

When a removed mole is sent for histology

When it is clinically indicated, the removed tissue goes to our accredited histopathology laboratory for examination under the microscope. Results are typically available within 5 to 7 working days.

Histology is included in the removal fee where it is clinically indicated. If the consultant finds that a mole needs specialist plastic surgery, you are told at the consultation.
