Examination of moles

A mole check is a professional assessment of pigmented spots, birthmarks, and new or changed moles on the skin. The dermatologist assesses the size, color, shape, and any changes that may be signs of skin cancer or other skin diseases.

It is important to keep an eye on moles that change over time. The following changes may indicate that a mole should be examined by a dermatologist:

Although most moles are completely normal, an early evaluation by a dermatologist can be crucial for detecting skin cancer or other skin changes at an early stage.

Regular mole checkups are important because early detection of changes in moles can help prevent skin cancer and other skin conditions. Many serious skin changes can be treated more effectively the earlier they are detected, which increases your safety and peace of mind as a patient.

The examination not only helps identify suspicious moles but also provides peace of mind regarding moles that are normal. By getting a professional evaluation, you can better understand which moles you should keep an eye on yourself and which ones require follow-up.

If a mole is deemed suspicious or bothersome, it can be safely and professionally removed by a dermatologist. The procedure is a minor surgical intervention that is usually performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain during the process.

The dermatologist gently removes the mole, and the skin is carefully closed so that the wound can heal properly. The area is then covered with a bandage, and you will receive instructions on how to care for the skin during the healing process. Mole removal is a quick procedure, typically taking between 15 and 30 minutes depending on the mole’s size and location, and is always performed with a focus on safety and minimal risk of scarring.
