Why Should I Consider a Moles
Removal?
How necessary is moles removal? Is there
any risk for your health? Manifold reasons have been
identified for the appearance of dark spots or
irregularities on the skin, by their name nevi or moles.
Many people are born with moles, but the nevi continue to
appear throughout one's lifetime as well. Other than the
role played by heredity, many skin cancers developed as
melanoma because of mole exposure to the sun. Therefore,
moles removal can sometimes turn into a rush to save one's
life. Nevertheless, the risks of scarring and infections
are a lot lower and worth taking if the overall health
condition is at stake.

The first step before the moles removal consists in the
diagnosis of the condition by a dermatologist and a surgeon.
The best idea is to see a specialist that has enough of
experience in the field to know how to keep surgery risks
minimum, and here we refer to anesthetic allergy, nerve damage
or scarring. The most common of problems following moles
removal consists in tissue scarring. Keep in mind in fact that
some skin mark will be left behind even when you remove the
moles only for cosmetic purposes.
If you are not forced into moles removal by some health
problem, you'd better talk to the surgeon and learn about the
position, the size and the visibility of the scar resulting
from the operation. Only afterwards should you decide whether
to remove the moles or not. If you carry on with the
intervention, there are several stages of preparation before
the procedure as such: the cleaning of the mole area with an
antiseptic substance, isolation of the skin portion in question
from the rest of the tissues and the administration of the
anesthetic.
The simplest of all is the moles removal without stitches: the
surgeon cuts the mole with the scalpel, then burns it with a
laser and applies a topical antibiotic before bandaging. In
case deeper excisions are necessary, then stitches will be most
probably used. The latter form of intervention is usually
accompanied by more serious scarring, and requires a more
special care after the operation. The cleaning of the wound has
to be performed has to be performed twice a day, followed by
the topical application of an antibiotic and the bandaging;
don't skip any of these steps and stick to the doctor's
indications.
