Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I would like to inform you that healthwise, a mole does not cause any problem. It has a tendency to become malignant in cases of caucasian individuals (white people) but, in quite dark people it would not cause any discomfort. Until and unless you want to remove it due to cosmetic reasons, it will not pose any risk. The depth of the pigment of the mole may vary, superficial or deep.

Treatment:

1. If it is superficial, I suggest it can be removed by a single sitting of radio frequency or a laser treatment. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and take the treatment with their consent.

2. Whereas in case of a deeper mole, I suggest it will require more than two sittings. Since removing it in a single sitting can cause scarring.

3. The pigment in the deeper mole can reoccur even after removing it, hence the choice of removing it will be only because of cosmetic reasons.

Regards.
