How Are Moles Treated?
Dr. Babe will examine moles and lesions for depth, location, and size before determining the best technique for removal.

Those that have grown from deeper within may require excision, which is a minor surgical procedure. During an excision, Dr. Babe will use local anesthesia to numb the spot, cut off the lesion, and then carefully sew the wound closed for optimal results with minimal scarring.
