The Process

Deeper or larger lesions often require mole removal surgery, which involves excision. During this procedure, Dr. Abban administers local anesthesia, carefully excises the mole or lesion, and sutures the skin for optimal results with minimal scarring. Whether you need mole removal on your face or another area, Dr. Abban tailors the procedure to enhance both aesthetic outcomes and skin health.
The cost of mole removal varies, depending on the size and location of the mole, the technique used, and whether pathology testing is needed. During your consultation, Dr. Abban will provide a detailed estimate tailored to your case.
