Why is a Mole Removed?
There are many reasons why a mole can be removed from the face or body. These unsightly growths can be psychologically burdensome and lower self-confidence. Moles may also change their appearance, altering size, shape or color. In some rare cases, moles may sometimes develop into cancerous growths.
Mole removal is a delicate operation because it requires the elimination of a skin feature. Our technique of removing moles and the aftercare we recommend virtually eliminates the risk of unattractive scar or discoloration. In most cases, the excision defect is repaired with a special suturing technique that makes the defect heal like a small dot that eventually disappears.
The mole removal procedure can be performed under local anesthesia in the office. In most cases, the sutures will be removed within seven days.
Although many moles are completely benign and have very little impact on your day-to-day life or health, there are still several reasons why you may want to have a mole removed. Here at Mardirossian Facial Aesthetics, Dr. Mardirossian and his team are highly experienced in mole removal.

Why Should You Consider Mole Removal?
In some cases, it may be in your best interest to have a mole removed from your face or your body. Here are some situations in which our patients come to us for their mole removal needs:
- They lower self-confidence. Moles can have a psychological impact on your well being, especially if they’re large or if they are on your face. Some of our clients come to us for mole removal to improve their self-confidence.
