What Is Skin Lesion Removal?
Skin lesion removal is a medical procedure used to remove unwanted or abnormal growths on the skin, such as moles, warts, skin tags, cysts, and benign tumors.
The procedure can be performed using lasers, excision, cryotherapy (freezing), or electrocautery, depending on the type and size of the lesion. Skin lesion removal is commonly done for cosmetic reasons, medical concerns, or biopsy purposes to rule out any potential health risks.
Benign Lesion Removal Procedure
The procedure varies from person to person as it depends on the location, size, and type of lesion. Lesion removal procedures are mostly non-invasive and can be done in an outpatient medical office.

Common Treatments for Benign Tumors, Tags, Warts, and Other Skin Lesions at Medrein Health & Aesthetics
Getting rid of benign lesions, skin tags, and warts is difficult with simple treatment options. Determining the cause of the treatment is the major part of the treatment; after working on such processes, the professionals finalize the treatment option. The most common benign treatment options are:
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy helps lighten the discolored lesions and stimulates the body’s collagen production for long-lasting results. Skin lesion treatment can remove all types of benign and premalignant lesions.
Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy is commonly used for malignant lesions, but benign lesions can also benefit from this treatment. It is responsible for the killing of fast-growing cells before it turn cancerous.
Cryotherapy
It is an equally effective treatment procedure for the removal of benign lesions. In this procedure, liquid nitrogen is applied to the area to freeze the tissues. This causes the skin in the area to blister, leading to the dead tissues peeling off in a few days. Though this procedure is safe and effective, it may cause discomfort to some patients with sensitive skin, so we do not recommend it for children.
Surgical Excision
Surgical excision involves the removal of the entire mass, but patients who want mole removal may undergo a shave excision process. The doctor uses a razor-like tool or a scalpel to remove the mass during this treatment method.

FAQs
Can you cure benign lesions at home?
Can the formation of skin tags, warts, and other similar skin conditions be prevented?
While minimizing skin folds on the body by maintaining a healthy weight can reduce the chances of skin tag formation, staying away from people with warts may keep you safe, as warts are contagious.
Do moles regrow after the therapy?
Due to mole cells, the skin mole may regrow to its former size and shape. Never assume that a mole that has grown back is cancerous. The chance of regeneration is the same for malignant and non-cancerous moles. Consulting with a doctor regarding the removal of a mole is essential to prevent it from returning.
When to seek surgery?
You should visit your doctor if your skin lesion creates discomfort or pain and alters in size, form, and color or if it seems like an open wound that won’t heal.
How can a benign lesion turn malignant?
Malignant tumors do not always develop from benign lesions. However, if abnormal cells continue to alter and multiply uncontrollably, they have the potential to become malignant.
What are the major causes of benign lesions?
Benign lesions are generally non-cancerous formations. They have distinct borders, modest growth, and can appear anywhere on the body. They don’t spread to, other body spots, unlike malignant (cancerous) lesions. Below are the common causes of benign lesions on the skin:
- Environmental poisons, including radiation exposure Genetics
- Diet, Stress, burns, or injury
- Infection or inflammation
- Birthmarks
Although people are more prone to get lesions as they age, it can happen to anyone, including children.
