Frequently Asked Questions on Benign Lesion Removal

Why would I want to get rid of my benign mole? (Lesion Removal FAQ)

Removing benign moles can be a proactive step towards maintaining overall health and preventing potential complications. While benign moles are generally harmless, there are several reasons why their removal can be beneficial.

Cosmetic concerns

Removing benign moles can alleviate cosmetic concerns. You may feel self-conscious or unhappy about the appearance of certain moles. Especially if they are located in highly visible areas such as the face or neck.

Removing these moles can enhance one’s self-esteem and improve overall confidence.

Preventing irritation

Furthermore, removing benign moles can prevent irritation or discomfort. Moles located in areas prone to friction, such as under the bra straps or along the waistband, can become irritated or inflamed.

This can lead to discomfort or even infection. By removing these moles, it’s possible to avoid such issues and experience greater comfort.

Keeping track of changes

Moreover, removing benign moles can simplify skin monitoring and surveillance. Without benign moles cluttering the skin’s surface, it becomes easier to detect changes in the appearance or characteristics of remaining moles.

This simplification can aid in the early detection of skin cancer or other abnormalities. This way any new or evolving moles are more readily noticeable.

At Revitalise Skincare Clinic our medically trained staff will ensure you are in the safest possible hands. We use cutting edge technology to remove moles without an incision which could cause scarring.

Talk to us about your benign mole and we can look at the best treatment for you. Please note before any mole removal we need your GPs approval as we don’t have access to your medical files.

What are skin tags?

Skin tags are medically known as acrochordons or fibroepithelial polyps. They are common benign growths that often appear on the skin’s surface.

These small flesh-coloured outgrowths typically attach to the skin by a thin stalk.

Giving them a polyp-like appearance. While skin tags can develop anywhere on the body, they tend to occur in areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing, such as the neck, armpits, groin, eyelids, and beneath the breasts.

Skin tags are surrounded by a covering of epidermal and dermal tissues. They are non-cancerous and generally harmless, posing no significant health risks.

However, their presence can cause discomfort or irritation, particularly if they become irritated or snagged on clothing or jewellery.

Some factors can contribute to their development:

Friction

Friction: Skin tags often develop in areas where skin experiences friction or rubbing, such as skin folds or creases. This constant friction may stimulate the growth of excess skin cells, leading to the formation of skin tags over time.

Genetics

Genetics: There is evidence to suggest that genetics plays a role in predisposing individuals to develop skin tags. People with a family history of skin tags are more likely to develop them themselves.

Hormonal changes

Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as those occurring during pregnancy, puberty, or menopause, may contribute to the formation of skin tags. These hormonal imbalances can affect skin cell growth and turnover, potentially leading to the development of these benign growths.

Obesity

Obesity: Being overweight or obese is associated with an increased risk of developing skin tags. Excess body fat can lead to skin folds and creases, providing an environment conducive to the formation of skin tags due to increased friction and skin-to-skin contact.

While skin tags are generally harmless and do not require treatment, many individuals choose to remove them for cosmetic or practical reasons.

What are the benefits of getting rid of skin tags?

While skin tags are usually harmless, many individuals choose to remove them for both cosmetic and practical reasons. The decision to get rid of skin tags can offer several benefits, ranging from improved appearance to enhanced comfort and reduced risk of complications.

Aesthetic reasons

One of the primary benefits of removing skin tags is the aesthetic improvement it brings. Skin tags can sometimes appear unsightly, especially if they are in prominent or visible areas such as the face, neck, or hands.

By removing these growths, individuals can achieve smoother, clearer skin, enhancing their overall appearance and boosting their self-confidence. This can be particularly beneficial for those who feel self-conscious about their skin tags and wish to improve their physical appearance.

Discomfort

Furthermore, eliminating skin tags can also alleviate discomfort and irritation. Skin tags often occur in areas where friction occurs, such as the underarms, groin, or beneath the breasts.

When irritated, they may become red, swollen, or even painful, causing discomfort and inconvenience. By removing skin tags, individuals can eliminate the source of irritation and experience relief from symptoms such as itching, soreness, or tenderness.

Lesion removal – preventing future complications

Another significant benefit of getting rid of skin tags is the prevention of potential complications. Although skin tags are generally harmless, they can sometimes become irritated, inflamed, or even infected, particularly if they are repeatedly rubbed or scratched.

In rare cases, skin tags may also bleed if accidentally torn or damaged. By removing these growths, individuals can reduce the risk of such complications.

Moreover, removing skin tags can simplify personal grooming and hygiene routines. Skin tags can sometimes interfere with shaving, waxing, or other hair removal methods, making these tasks more challenging and less effective.

Additionally, the presence of skin tags may trap moisture, sweat, or bacteria, increasing the risk of odour, infection, or other hygiene-related issues. By eliminating skin tags, individuals can streamline their grooming routines and maintain cleaner, healthier skin.

Lesion Removal – What are Milia?

Milia are small, white or yellowish cysts that commonly appear on the skin, particularly on the face. These tiny bumps are often mistaken for whiteheads or acne, but they are actually small cysts filled with keratin, a protein found in the outermost layer of skin.

Milia can occur in people of all ages and they typically develop when keratin becomes trapped beneath the surface of the skin, forming a small, raised bump.

The exact cause of milia is not fully understood, but several factors may contribute to their development:

Skin trauma

Skin trauma: Milia can sometimes occur following skin trauma, such as burns, blisters, or rashes. The damage to the skin’s surface may disrupt the natural shedding process, leading to the accumulation of keratin and the formation of milia.

Skincare products

Use of heavy skincare products: Certain skincare products, particularly those that are heavy, may contribute to the development of milia. These products can block the skin’s pores, trapping keratin and other debris beneath the surface and resulting in the formation of cysts.

Sun exposure

Sun exposure: Prolonged exposure to the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays can damage the skin and disrupt its natural exfoliation process. This may lead to the accumulation of dead skin cells and keratin, increasing the risk of developing milia.

Milia are typically harmless and do not cause pain or discomfort. However, some individuals may choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons or if they become irritated or inflamed.

At our award winning skincare clinics we are well used to removing milia so contact us today to find out how this treatment can work for you.

What are warts and why would you want to remove warts?

Warts are common skin growths. They can appear anywhere on the body but are most commonly found on the hands, fingers, feet, and genital areas. Warts are characterized by their rough texture and can vary in size, shape, and colour. While they are generally harmless, warts can be unsightly and may cause discomfort or embarrassment, prompting many individuals to seek their removal.

While warts are generally harmless, there are several reasons why it is beneficial to remove them:

Cosmetic reasons

Cosmetic reasons: Warts can be unsightly and may cause self-consciousness or embarrassment, particularly if they are located on visible areas of the body such as the face, hands, or feet. Removing warts can improve the appearance of the skin and boost self-confidence.

Discomfort

Discomfort or pain: Certain types of warts, such as plantar warts, can be painful, especially when walking or standing. Removing warts can alleviate discomfort and improve mobility.

Preventing spread

Preventing spread: Warts are contagious and can spread to other areas of the body or to other people through direct contact. Removing warts can help prevent their spread and reduce the risk of infecting others.

Preventing complications

Preventing complications: In some cases, warts may become infected or cause other skin problems such as itching, bleeding, or inflammation. Removing warts can help prevent these complications and promote better skin health.

What are Cherry Angioma? (Lesion Removal FAQ)

Cherry angiomas are common benign skin growths characterized by small, bright red or purple bumps on the skin’s surface. These growths typically range in size from a pinhead to about a quarter of an inch in diameter. They can appear anywhere on the body.

The exact cause of cherry angiomas is not fully understood, but they are believed to result from an overgrowth of small blood vessels near the skin’s surface. While the precise trigger for this overgrowth is unknown, factors such as age, genetics, hormonal changes, and exposure to ultraviolet radiation may play a role in their development.

Cherry angiomas are generally harmless but they can cause discomfort, bleed, or are cosmetically undesirable to the individual.

What are Seborrhoeic Keratosis and why it’s positive to have Seborrhoeic Keratosis removed?

Seborrhoeic keratoses are common benign skin growths characterized by raised, wart-like lesions that vary in colour from tan to black.

These growths typically appear on areas of the body that are prone to sun exposure, such as the face, chest, back, and scalp. Seborrhoeic keratoses are more common in older adults and tend to increase in number and size with age.

The exact cause of seborrhoeic keratoses is not fully understood, but they are believed to result from a combination of genetic predisposition, sun exposure, and ageing. These growths develop when there is an overgrowth of keratinocytes, the cells that make up the outermost layer of the skin.

While seborrhoeic keratoses are generally harmless and do not pose a health risk, many individuals choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons or if they become irritated, itchy, or prone to bleeding.
