Detailed Lesion Removal Information

The discovery of new lesions, including moles and skin tags, may initially cause alarm, and should be examined by your family doctor or dermatologist to ensure any new growths are benign.

How Lesion Removal Works

Removing a benign lesion is usually a quick, in-office procedure. After assessing the lesion to confirm it is suitable for cosmetic removal, Dr. Weber selects the best method based on its type, size and location.

Common Removal Methods

  • Laser removal — precise treatment well suited to certain lesions and pigment
  • Cautery — using controlled heat to remove small growths such as skin tags

Treatment is typically brief, and a local anesthetic may be used for comfort where appropriate.

What to Expect

Most lesion removals are straightforward with minimal disruption. The treated area may form a small scab as it heals, and Dr. Weber will provide aftercare guidance to support smooth healing and the best cosmetic result.

Cosmetic vs Medical Removal

Cosmetic removal is for benign lesions you would simply prefer to remove. Any lesion that looks suspicious or is changing should be medically assessed first — Dr. Weber will advise if that applies.
