A Small Selection of Common Skin Lesion Removal Performed at Advanced Cosmetic Medicine

Mole Removal

Moles occur when cells in the skin grow in a cluster instead of being spread throughout the skin. These cells are called melanocytes, and they make the pigment that gives skin its natural color.

Skin Tag Removal

Skin tags are a benign outpouching of skin that appears on the underarms, neck, upper chest, groin, and under the breasts.

Wart Removal

Warts are lumpy growths in the skin caused by infection with human papilloma viruses, of which there are now more than 100 known types.

Sebaceous Cyst Removal

Sebaceous cysts are common noncancerous cysts of the skin. Cysts are abnormalities in the body that may contain liquid or semiliquid material. Sebaceous cysts are mostly found on the face, neck, or torso.

Milia Removal

A milium is a small cyst containing keratin (skin protein); they are usually multiple and are then known as milia. These harmless cysts present as tiny pearly-white bumps just under the surface of the skin.

Birth Mark Removal

A birthmark is a congenital, benign irregularity on the skin which is present at birth or appears shortly after birth, usually in the first month. They can occur anywhere on the skin.

Pigmentation Removal

Within the lowest layer of the epidermis are cells called melanocytes, which are responsible for producing the pigment called melanin. This melanin production is what gives our skin its genetically predetermined colour and when overstimulated, can produce excess pigmentation.
