Skin Lesion & Mole Removal: Expert Minor Surgery
At our CQC-registered clinic, we provide minor surgical removal of skin lesions in a safe, clinical environment. Dr. Paul Charlson is a highly experienced and trained dermatological surgeon, committed to employing minimally invasive techniques that are virtually painless and aim for the most scar-free result possible.
Minor skin lesions such as moles, skin tags, cysts (often referred to as sebaceous or pilar cysts), and other small lesions like milia can be distressing, often growing to cause discomfort and embarrassment. These can be removed quickly and easily using local anaesthetic. It is crucial to note that all moles removed undergo further analysis by a laboratory to check for malignancy. We also offer a biopsy service for scalp lesions, hair loss concerns, and other lumps and bumps.
Dr. Charlson utilises advanced techniques such as punch excision and shave excision, honed over many years of surgical experience in both NHS and private dermatology clinics, to minimise scarring. He continuously refines his techniques to ensure optimal outcomes.
We understand that our patients may have busy lives and travel from a distance, which is why we offer a simple photo appraisal service to provide an initial indication of prices and treatment options. Our transparent pricing reflects our commitment to being fully insured and CQC registered, providing our patients with the assurance they need. Dr. Charlson can also take blood samples required by online laboratories for further analysis at our SkinQure Clinic in Welton. Additionally, Dr. Charlson runs a dedicated scar reduction clinic for raised, itchy scars and offers treatments for acne scarring.
