You’ll find answers to the most frequently asked questions below. Everything you need to know is right here, designed to help you make an informed and confident decision.
It suits certain raised, benign lesions. Assessment confirms whether shave excision or a different method, such as full excision, is more appropriate.
Shave excision usually leaves a small flat mark, which we discuss with you beforehand along with aftercare to support healing.
Because shave excision removes a lesion level with the skin, some lesions can partially regrow. We explain the likelihood for your particular lesion.
Many benign lesions can be removed once assessed and confirmed suitable, usually under local anaesthetic. Any procedure that removes a lesion can leave a mark or scar, and how noticeable this is depends on the size, site and type of lesion and the method used. We discuss the expected result and aftercare before proceeding, and lesions with concerning features are referred for specialist assessment rather than removed for cosmetic reasons.
