Yes, mole removal is safe when performed by a healthcare professional. At our mole removal clinic, we specialize in removing moles and skin tags, ensuring that each procedure is performed with precision and care. Because we are experts in mole removal, you can feel especially safe with us because we use proven techniques that deliver excellent cosmetic results.

Our radio frequency ablation technique is designed to reduce the risk of scarring far more effectively than traditional mole removal techniques like cutting or laser removal. Radio frequency works by precisely targeting the mole or skin tag tissue, while preserving the surrounding skin, and permanently removing the skin lesion. This gentle approach allows for permanent removal resulting in little to no visible scarring.

No, mole and skin tag removal is not covered by insurance due to it being a cosmetic procedure. The procedure would only be covered by insurance if it is determined that the mole or skin tag must be medically removed due to health concerns. To make our treatment more accessible, we offer affordable pricing packages and flexible payment plans through Cherry financing.

Skin tags can develop due to multiple factors such as genetics, friction on the skin, and hormonal changes. Skin tags are also more common in those who are pregnant, have diabetes, and are overweight. Common areas for skin tags to form are on the under arms, neck, eyelids, and back.

If your mole changes in shape, size, or color, that could be a warning sign of something serious such as melanoma — a type of skin cancer. While all changes are not an indication of something harmful, it’s important to get your mole examined by a medical professional. Early evaluation helps to ensure peace of mind and catch the problem early if there is one.

No, it is not recommended to remove a skin tag yourself. At-home methods or removal kits could cause bleeding, pain, infection, and could lead to scarring or the mole growing back. Professional mole removal is safe, permanent, and ensures that the area can heal properly.

Skin tag removal typically results in little to no downtime, depending on the size, number of skin tags getting removed, and the severity of them. Many of our patients resume back to their normal daily routine after their procedure. Healing is typically quick and we provide detailed after-care instructions to ensure the best possible cosmetic outcome.
