This form of mole removal is widely regarded to be superior to traditional surgical techniques since the laser targets only the area that needs treatment only.

Also, CO2 Laser Removal doesn’t involve any stitches which can increase the risk of scarring. Instead, the Laser targets only the tissue, leaving a smooth and clean surface without damaging surrounding tissue, unlike after having traditional surgical skin tag, moles and seborrheic keratosis removal techniques.

What are moles?

Moles can appear at birth or over time as you age. Moles are harmless in most cases.

Moles are a small cluster of skin tone or pigmented spots on the Skin. They are made up of cells called melanocytes which produce the colour or pigment in your Skin. Moles may darken after sun exposure, during pregnancy or puberty and can vary in colour from brown to black or pink. Moles may appear flat, oval, raised or circular. 

The typical Mole is a small spot, but moles can come in different colours, shapes and sizes:

  • Texture and colour - Moles can be tan, black, brown, red, blue or pink. They may appear smooth, raised, wrinkled or flat. Some may have hair growing from them.
  • Shape - Most moles are round or oval
  • Size - Moles are usually less than 6 millimetres (1/4 inch) in diameter. Those present at birth, called congenital nevi, can be bigger than usual, covering part of the face, torso, or limb

Moles can develop anywhere on your body, including your armpits, scalp, under your nails, and between your fingers and toes even under your nails. The majority of people have 10 to 40 moles. Many of these develop by the age of 50 years old. Moles may fade away or change over time. With hormonal changes in pregnancy and adolescence, they may become larger and darker.

Clusters of brown spots around the cheeks, nose and eyes are sometimes called flesh moles. Still, they are dermatoses papulose nigra, which are a type of seborrheic keratosis, not clusters of pigment-forming cells (nevi). Dermatoses papulose nigra are more common in darker skin tones. Moles which have no pigment (Skin coloured) don’t carry a risk of melanoma and are often treated if you consider them an aesthetic concern.

Unusual moles that may indicate melanoma

A mole may be a sign of skin cancer if it has irregular borders, an asymmetrical shape, or changes in colour, shape, size, or height. This ABCDE guide can help you. Understand if you should be worried and have the area checked by your GP

“A” is for Asymmetry: If you draw a line down the middle of the Mole, you will find that each half of melanoma doesn’t match in size.

 “B” is for Border: The edges of early melanoma are quite likely to be irregular, crusty or notched.

 “C” is for Colour: Healthy moles are uniform in colour. Various colours, especially black, white and/or blue, are worrying.

 “D” is for Diameter: Melanomas are usually larger in diameter than 6 millimetres, although they may be smaller.

 “E” is for Evolving: When a mole begins to change in size, shape, colour, or features or develops symptoms like itching, tenderness or bleeding, this danger points.

Cancerous/ malignant moles vary greatly in appearance. Some show all the changes listed above, while Ohers may have only one or two unusual characteristics.

When to see a doctor

Please make an appointment with your doctor if a mole grows, bleeds, looks unusual or otherwise changes.

What are skin tags?

Skin tags are small, flesh-coloured, or brown, common, harmless skin growths attached to the skin by a stalk or small peduncle. They can be found anywhere on the body but most typically in areas where the skin rubs against itself. However, generally harmless, many people find them aesthetically unpleasing.

Skin tags can affect women and men. Although some people develop them for no apparent reason, some of the common causes include:

  • Excess weight
  • Pregnancy
  • Genetics
  • Age
  • Sun exposure can darken skin tags
  • Illness

Skin tags often grow where your skin rubs together or where there are folds in your skin. 

This means they usually appear as:

  • On your neck
  • Under your breasts
  • Under your arms

Skin tags can range in size from around 2mm to 5cm, and you may notice one or a few in an area.

When to see a doctor

Please make an appointment with your doctor if the skin tag gets more prominent, becomes painful, starts bleeding, or you develop many skin tags.

What is sebhorrheic keratosis?

Seborrheic keratosis, pronounced seb-o-REE-ik ker-uh-TOE-sis, is a common non-cancerous skin growth. These are more common as we age, so don’t be surprised or worried if one or two appear over the years.

Seborrheic keratoses tend to be light brown, brown or black.

The lesions appear waxy, scaly, slightly raised, and usually round or oval. 

They appear gradually over time, most commonly on the face, neck, chest or back and can develop as a single growth or in clusters.

Some stay small whereas others can grow large, more than 1 inch (2.5 centimetres) across.

Seborrheic keratoses are not contagious and harmless to many. They do not need treatment, but many people decide to have them removed if they become irritating or unattractive.

Seborrheic keratosis grows gradually. 

Signs and symptoms might include:

  • A round or oval-shaped rough or waxy bump, typically on the face, chest, shoulder, or the back
  • Varied numbers, ranging from a single growth to multiple growths
  • A flat growth or slightly raised bump with a rough or scaly surface, with a "pasted on" appearance
  • Varied size, from very small to more than 1 inch (2.5 centimetres) across
  • Various numbers, ranging from a single growth to multiple growths
  • Varied in colour, ranging from light tan to brown or black
  • Itchiness

When to see a doctor

If the area gets irritated or bleeds when your clothing rubs against it. Also, see your doctor if you notice suspicious changes, such as sores or growths that grow rapidly, bleed and don’t heal. These could be signs of skin cancer.

How CO2 laser mole removal, skin tag removal, seborrheic keratosis removal in Norwich works

Our CO2 fractional laser offers' gold standard' skin resurfacing and rejuvenation

The Laser is delivered with a wavelength of 10,600nm in an array of Laser beams scanned across the Skin, creating 100-micrometre columns in the Skin.

The laser beam destroys the Mole or skin tag from the inside through a process called thermolysis (vaporisation). This action stimulates the production of new collagen, which helps with a faster healing process and rejuvenated, new Skin. The CO2 laser mole removal procedure is non-surgical, minimally invasive and painless.

What to expect at your appointment

We want to ensure you’re confident in your treatment and clinic specialist to achieve the best-desired results. Skin Specialist & Aesthetics Nurse Rebecca begins the appointment with a personal consultation. She will listen to your concerns and discuss the history of the area of concern.

We then advise on details of the treatment to ensure you understand and are happy with what to expect during and after the personalised treatment, along with costing.
In our experience, clients love to see results, so we take a range of images for our records to allow us together to track your progress.

During the treatment, you will lie comfortably on the treatment couch. Your Skin will be cleansed with a range of sterile medical-grade skincare products. This will ensure that the skin is prepped, clean and bacteria-free.

Once the skin is thoroughly cleansed, a layer of topical anaesthetic may be applied to the treatment area to ensure the treatment is as comfortable as possible once the topical anaesthetic has worked its magic, the treatment will begin.

The treatment takes around 30 minutes, depending on the specific area and number of lesions to be treated. Some clients may need to repeat the procedure 2-3 months later, but in the majority of cases, one treatment is enough to achieve complete removal. Please note, although small, there is a small risk of the lesion may leave behind scarring, we try our upmost to prevent this, but it is a possibility.

Once you and your skin are comfortable and ready, a light barrier film will be applied, as well as a suitable SPF to complete the treatment.

Immediately afterwards, the area/s will be warm, pink, slightly raised and sensitive. Recovery time is 7-14 days where the area will appear, dry, raised, irritated with possible swelling, you may be provided with several small covering to place over the area to assist the healing process.
