Skin Lesion Removal Surgery

WHAT IS A SKIN LESION

A skin lesion is any area of skin that looks or feels different from the surrounding tissue. This can include moles, skin tags, cysts, warts, lipomas (fatty lumps), or other raised or discoloured areas. Most lesions are benign, but in some cases, they can indicate underlying conditions that need medical attention.

Our specialists perform a detailed examination before any procedure to determine the nature of the lesion and to ensure that removal is necessary. If required, we may send the tissue for laboratory testing to confirm the diagnosis and rule out any serious concerns.

PRECISION AND CARE IN EVERY PROCEDURE 

At Cornerstone, every procedure is performed with meticulous attention to detail by our experienced doctors and dermatology specialists. Whether you require removal for medical or cosmetic reasons, your comfort and safety are always our top priorities.

We use modern surgical techniques that minimise scarring and promote fast healing. Depending on the type and location of the lesion, your doctor may recommend one of several methods, including surgical excision, laser removal, or electrocautery. The choice is guided by medical safety, the cosmetic outcome, and your individual needs.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING THE TREATMENT

Your journey begins with a consultation, where your doctor will carefully assess your skin and discuss your concerns. The removal itself is performed under local anaesthesia, so you remain completely comfortable throughout the procedure.

Most treatments take less than 30 minutes, and in many cases, you can return to your normal activities soon after. Your doctor will provide aftercare instructions to ensure smooth healing and reduce the risk of scarring or infection.

If the removed tissue requires further analysis, you will be informed once the laboratory results are available, and your doctor will discuss any additional steps if necessary.
