Whether you are seeking treatment for a bothersome skin lesion, a benign lump, or a cosmetic concern, our experienced clinicians offer safe, effective treatment in a comfortable outpatient setting.
All procedures are performed under local anaesthetic, allowing patients to return home shortly after treatment.
Mole & Skin Lesion Removal
Moles and skin lesions are extremely common and may be removed because they are changing in appearance, causing irritation, catching on clothing, or for cosmetic reasons. Following a thorough consultation, your clinician will recommend the most appropriate treatment method, including shave excision, laser removal, or surgical excision.
Where clinically indicated, tissue samples can be sent for histological examination to confirm the diagnosis.
Cyst & Lipoma Removal
Cysts and lipomas are common benign lumps that can become uncomfortable, infected, inflamed, or cosmetically concerning. Surgical removal is a straightforward procedure performed under local anaesthetic, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days.
Xanthelasma Removal
Xanthelasma are yellowish cholesterol-rich deposits that develop around the eyelids. Although harmless, many patients choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons. We offer surgical removal tailored to the size and location of the lesions, aiming to achieve the best possible cosmetic outcome.
Wart & Verruca Removal
Persistent warts and verrucae can be painful, unsightly, and resistant to over-the-counter treatments. We offer a range of treatment options to safely remove stubborn lesions and reduce the risk of recurrence.
Ganglion Treatment
Ganglions are fluid-filled swellings commonly found around the wrist, hand, ankle, or foot. Whilst often harmless, they can cause discomfort, restrict movement, or become cosmetically troublesome. Treatment options will be discussed during your consultation based on the size, location, and symptoms.
Keloid Scar Treatment
Keloid scars occur when scar tissue continues to grow beyond the original wound. They can be itchy, painful, or cosmetically distressing. Treatment options include steroid injections and surgical excision combined with additional therapies to minimise the risk of recurrence.
Skin Cancer Screening
Early detection is vital in the successful treatment of skin cancer. Our comprehensive skin cancer screening appointments include assessment of suspicious moles and skin lesions, helping to identify any concerns at the earliest possible stage.
