Yes, they will remove for cosmetic reasons BUT it is always best to see a dermatologist. Mainly because they are better able to assess the mole and also better at removing it in a cosmetically pleasing manner. Removal methods vary depending upon many things. If the mole shows any sign of cancer, they can use a punch and a single stitch or even a laser. If it is obviously a non-cancerous mole, they often just shave it off. As for cost, it depend upon the procedure, doctor, size and location of mole, etc.
I have a history of melanoma. I get moles removed about every 6 months at my derm during my check up. She has used all methods. I think it has ranged from $200- $500 per mole.
sure.anything for a buck..if you tear it or tell them it is bleeding,,maybe free,,,usually freeze it……………..
how much,,,,,,,,depends location…size…doctor
Yes, they will remove them. I’ve had a few taken off, and they were covered by insurance because my doctor sent them off for biopsy (my father died of melanoma).
Yes, they will remove it. With mine, they numbed the area then cut it off and cauterized the cut area. Your cost will vary by what your insurance will cover and also what tests the pathology lab runs and what your insurance will cover of that.
