Not all moles have to be removed! There are cosmetic or aesthetic purposes that justify moles removing in very many cases, particularly when more visible body parts are affected. But even so, do not jump into undergoing a surgical procedure before you learn about the risks and benefits of such an intervention. Certain medical conditions turn moles removing into a must, and this is often the case with certain dark body areas that resemble the preceding form of melanoma or skin cancer. Under such circumstances, the surgical procedure becomes obligatory and the only viable treatment for health preservation.
The surgical intervention for moles removing consist of three basic stages that present no difficulty whatsoever. Betadine or alcohol will be used to disinfect the area, because this previous cleaning eliminates the bacteria on the skin surface. Then, the doctor will apply some anesthetic to reduce the blood flow and numb the tissues. Lidocaine is often preferred for such interventions, but the patient has to be tested for a potential allergic reaction to this anesthetic. The last measure to be taken in the preparatory stage of moles removing is the protection of the skin surrounding the treated area with some kind of material.
There are several methods for moles removing and the difference correspond to the various dermatological-surgical procedures: cauterization, laser therapy and excision represent the three main choices. The choice of the intervention mode depends on a variety of factors such as the size of the mole, the location, the depth in the deep skin layers and the patient's health condition. Excisions are sometimes accompanied by stitches when the cut is deep, and such wounds may require some extra care and medical monitoring during the healing period. Regardless of how you get the moles removed, it is absolutely necessary to apply some antibiotics in order to eliminate the infection threat.
After moles removing, laboratory samples will be taken to analyze the cellular structure to detect or eliminate the suspicion of skin cancer. In case you have stitches, you'll need to see your doctor in seven or ten days and have them removed. Moreover, the dermatologist will ask you to come to regular medical appointments for check ups and investigations. It is also important that you keep an eye open on what goes on with your body. If you pay enough attention to the skin, then, you'll reduce the chances of getting serious disease.
