When Should You Get a Mole, Wart, or Skin Tag Removed?
Moles, warts, and skin tags are common skin growths that are usually harmless but can cause cosmetic concern, irritation (especially in friction areas), or in rare cases, may need evaluation for skin cancer. A new or changing mole (asymmetry, irregular borders, colour changes, increasing size) should always be evaluated by a dermatologist to rule out melanoma or other skin cancers. Warts, caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV), can spread to other body parts or to other people if left untreated. Skin tags, while benign, can be bothersome when they catch on jewellery or clothing.
Removal Techniques at DermcareMD
At DermcareMD in Kothrud, Pune, Dr. Neha Athalye performs a dermoscopic evaluation of every mole before removal to assess its nature. Removal methods include radiofrequency (RF) cautery — a precise, virtually bloodless technique ideal for small moles, warts, and skin tags; cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen freezing) for warts; and surgical excision with histopathological examination for suspicious or large moles. All procedures are done under local anaesthesia, are minimally painful, and have a short recovery period. Post-removal care instructions are provided to ensure proper healing with minimal scarring.
