The skin check consultation will involve the use of dermatoscopy. The use of dermatoscopy can be used to diagnose lesions which are not clinically suspicious. If the lesion examined under dermatoscopy is diagnosed as benign then we can proceed to removal of the lesion.
To remove a lesion the practitioner will inject local anaesthetic into the area and the lesion will be removed using an Nd YAG Laser.
It is always advisable to have lesions (moles, skin tags, warts and cysts) pre-checked by your GP prior to making an appointment. If histological diagnosis is necessary then it is better dealt with by the NHS.
Your doctor will assess your areas of concern and advise whether further investigation (histology) is required. If so, the necessary arrangements will be made and occasionally patients are referred in order to confirm that there are no contraindications. We would also advise patients to consult their GPs for advice prior to booking a consultation.
During the treatment
Your doctor will mark the lesion(s) to be removed and local anaesthesia will be given at each site. The laser will then be used to cauterise each lesion. The procedure will be quick and comfortable.
After the treatment
There is no recovery time and you may leave the clinic when you are ready. However, the treated areas will look ‘scabby’ and darker than the surrounding skin. This initial scab will fall off in 5-7 days, after which a second scab will form and fall off in the next 14 days. After initial healing, the appearance of the treated area will improve and a very light mark, if any, may be left behind.
After a Laser Mole removal procedure
The laser mole removal procedure itself does not take very long. To have a single mole removed takes about 5 minutes. The initial consultation will take a bit longer, probably about 30 minutes, as all alternative treatments will be discussed and a history of the mole taken. It is advisable to have the mole checked by your GP before having laser mole removal
*Please note that results may vary from person to person.
Anyone can have a mole removed. However, it is advisable to have the mole checked by your GP before having it removed. The NHS can only remove moles if they are potentially dangerous.

1 colour – most often brown, but can also be tan, black, red, pink, blue, skin-toned or colourless.
Round in shape.
Flat or slightly raised.
The same in appearance from month to month.
A person’s moles may not all look alike and even in the same person moles can vary in size, shape and colour. Some have hair and some will change slowly over time, possibly even disappearing. Moles can appear anywhere on the body including the scalp, between the fingers and toes, on the soles and palms and even under the nails.
Once the mole has been removed you will be able to carry on with your normal daily activities straight away. We advise you not to touch the area the mole was removed from until it has healed completely. The healing will take 3- 6 weeks but it may take longer for the skin at the site of the removed mole to return the colour of the surrounding skin.
No,- If you are having laser mole removal, it is not possible to send your mole for histology. We advise you to have your mole examined by your GP and, if necessary, have a sample of the mole sent for histology prior to the laser mole removal treatment.
*”I saw Dr Silva about 18 months ago and he removed a mole. He was very thorough in asking me what I wanted to be done and why. The procedure was painless and I couldn’t believe the results. There was no scar whatsoever. I had a mole removed about 10 years ago and you can still see the scar – I didn’t know Dr Silva then. Would definitely recommend. I was also recommended the Obagi 360 which I used twice a day for over 2 weeks. Again I was very pleased with the results and will buy it again. I recently had dermal fillers and once again Dr Silva was extremely thorough. We had a long consultation and we talked through exactly what results I wanted to see. I was a bit nervous but there was no reason to be. Dr Silva is very understanding and I will definitely be going back.”
*I had an amazing experience at the clinic. Dr silva and his team are very friendly, approachable and helped me a lot to gain confidence and improve my skin. The treatments are still ongoing and I find the charges are very reasonable and most importantly I am already seeing a massive improvement on my skin. I would recommend this clinic to anybody who is looking for good results.”

*”I had I had mole removal from my neck. The particular mole was not flat in shape and was prone to injury from clothes, jewelry. Also from the cosmetic point of view was bothering me. The treatment I had today with Dr Silva was upset fast, painless and all went perfect. I would recommend to anyone this clinic on the basis of my experience today. Fantastic .
*I am really glad I have found this clinic here. I have read all the good reviews and that helped me make a decision. I didn’t regret, as Dr Silva was so kind, professional and made me feel very comfortable by explaining all I had to ask. I am now waiting for the results which will take a week, and he told me to contact if anything to ask.
