Poor self esteem and great dissatisfaction often affect people with significant skin blemishes that ruin their look. Even if extended to almost any body part, when located on the face, moles are more than troublesome. This is probably the reason why facial mole removal is a widely-practiced intervention in countries worldwide, being performed on request and after some medical investigations to assess the patient’s health condition and the nature of the moles to be removed. The costs of facial mole removal requested for cosmetic purposes is not covered by insurance; the only situations when coverage becomes possible is when there is a health problem involved.

There are three main procedures for facial mole removal: laser therapy, excision with stitching or excision with cauterization. Laser therapy is not considered surgery because it does not involve any tissue cutting. Preparatory stages will be required no matter the type of treatment chosen for facial mole removal. First of all, the doctor has to mark the exact area that needs to be removed, because in very many cases, the skin borders around the moles have to be cut as well. After this delimitation, a disinfectant and an anesthetic have to be applied before the start of the procedure.

The facial mole removal starts after the tissues get numb and the blood circulation is limited in the area. If the moles are grown deep into the skin, then, stitches may be necessary. If the mole is superficial, cauterization of the wound becomes necessary in order to stop the bleeding and speed up the healing process. The recovery is usually slow, but if proper care is taken of the wound, the regeneration may be complete. Antibiotics are normally applied topically to eliminate the risk for infections.

The choice of the treatment falls into the responsibility of a professional and should not be assumed individually. Take for instance laser treatment: it is considered to be pretty expensive and it only works for flat superficial moles. Larger nevi will be difficult to eliminate by laser because the light beam doesn’t get inside the tissues and many mole cells can remain active beneath the skin. The price for a facial mole removal by a laser intervention ranges from $100 and above, but we ought to stress out the fact that most of the time several laser sessions are necessary for good results.
