Skin moles can be a real problem for some people, impairing one’s look and causing great dissatisfaction and even poor self esteem. Even if extended to almost any body part, when located on the face, moles are more than troublesome. This is probably the reason why facial mole removal is a widely-practiced intervention in countries worldwide, being performed on request and after some medical investigations to assess the patient’s health condition and the nature of the moles to be removed. The costs of facial mole removal requested for cosmetic purposes is not covered by insurance; the only situations when coverage becomes possible is when there is a health problem involved.

There are three main procedures for facial mole removal: excision with cauterization, excision with stitches and laser therapy. The excision only is considered to fall in the surgical category, while laser interventions are considered practices different from surgery. Preparatory stages are necessary regardless of the type of treatment selected for facial mole removal. Firstly, there will be a delimitation of the skin portion that will need to be cut, surround the mole as such. Then, the area has to be cleaned with a disinfectant substance and then anesthetized.

The facial mole removal begins when the skin and the nerves get numb and the blood circulation is reduced. If the moles are grown deep into the skin, then, stitches may be necessary. If the mole is superficial, cauterization of the wound is used in order to stop the bleeding and increase the healing rate. The recovery is usually slow, but if proper care is taken of the wound, the regeneration may be complete. The risk of infections is reduced by the application of topical antibiotics.

As for the facial mole removal with a laser beam, we must stress out the fact that only a professional can decide whether light therapy is the right one for you. The problem with laser treatments is that they are more efficient in the case of flat superficial moles, but rather ineffective when it comes to raised skin tags. Larger nevi are hard to remove by the laser beam because the light cannot get deep inside the tissues, and lots of mole cells can remain untouched. The costs for a facial mole removal by a laser intervention is usually higher than $100, with the mention that most of the time several laser sessions are necessary for good results.
