Mole Removal Treatment

Moles are a type of skin growth which is quite common. Moles occur due to an abnormal collection of pigmented cells (melanocytes). It forms when the pigmented cells in the skin grow into a cluster instead of being segregated. People with light skin tone are more prone to have moles.

Moles may be present since birth or may appear during childhood or adolescence. Over time moles may change in their appearance or may fade away. Generally, moles are harmless and they rarely become cancerous. It has to be considered serious if moles are newly formed in adults because it can be a sign of skin cancer. Thus it is important to always check or monitor the pigmented patches or moles. Any more than 5-7 mm in size should be shown to Dermatologist. Frequent exposure to the sun makes mole darker. They may occur due to the hormonal changes during puberty, pregnancy or due to some hormonal therapy.

Peter John, PR Manager

I was skeptical at first as to whether the laser treatments would really initiate new hair growth. Well, I must tell that they have worked far better than I can ever think of. My area of Hair Loss is showing new hair growth that looks only to get thicker with time. I am well satisfied with what the surgeons have done and once again Thanks!
