While some people consider certain moles to be beauty marks, others may find their moles unsightly or are worried about its nature – is it benign or cancerous?
The only way to know for sure is to get a detailed skin evaluation by a dermatologist, who is also trained to conduct safe and effective mole removal procedures, be it for health or cosmetic reasons.

Moles are focal, dense collections of melanocytes (pigment-producing skin cells) that may span several layers of the skin. Most moles are harmless and their removal is often sought for cosmetic or practical reasons.
For example, a protruding mole on the chin that is nicked repeatedly when shaving can be surgically removed to prevent further injury to the skin.
However, some cancerous pigmented spots in the skin may masquerade as moles and go undetected for years. Hence, it is crucial to see a dermatologist in order to determine if a mole is cancerous or benign.
A dermatologist is a doctor who, after five years of working in general medicine, went on to undergo at least three more years of intensive, specialised medical and surgical training in dermatology; making him/her the most qualified doctor to remove your mole safely and effectively through various established methods.
The first consultation fee is $120, excluding medication and procedural costs.
