Mole removal at Esthé Laser Clinic begins with a digital dermatoscopy examination — a magnified, polarised-light assessment of the mole's internal structure using a calibrated dermoscope — before any removal decision is made. This step is clinically essential: dermoscopy identifies which lesions are benign (safe to remove cosmetically) and which have features requiring dermatological or surgical referral before removal. Benign lesions confirmed as cosmetically removable are treated in the same session using laser ablation or, for deeper lesions, a minor surgical excision. Removed tissue is sent for histological analysis when indicated, providing a definitive pathological assessment. The procedure uses local anaesthetic at the lesion site and takes 20–30 minutes per lesion. The treating physician is medically qualified and experienced in dermatoscopy.
About this treatment
Mole assessment and removal is a procedure that requires medical expertise at both stages: the diagnostic evaluation of the lesion's dermoscopic features, and the decision about the appropriate removal method. At Esthé Laser Clinic, both stages are performed by qualified medical personnel, in contrast to beauty clinic settings where removal may be offered without diagnostic assessment.
Dermatoscopy (dermoscopy) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that uses a handheld device combining a magnification lens (typically 10×) with a light source and cross-polarisation filter. The polarised light penetrates the first 1–2 mm of skin (through the stratum corneum without the need for contact fluid in modern non-contact devices) and reveals the underlying dermoscopic structures invisible to the naked eye. These include the pigment network…
At Esthé, the dermoscopic examination precedes any removal decision. If the mole has dermoscopic features of concern — irregular network, atypical vascular pattern, regression areas, or blue-white veil — the physician advises against cosmetic removal and recommends dermatology referral or biopsy first, as removing a potentially malignant lesion destroys the tissue needed for complete pathological staging. Only lesions with clear benign dermoscopic…

Who is this for?
Cosmetically unwanted benign moles, raised or flat pigmented lesions for assessment, patients wanting a medically supervised mole evaluation and removal in one appointment
Preparation required
Arrive with the mole area free of self-tanner and makeup. Disclose any blood-thinning medications. No prior removal attempts (shaving, freezing) on the lesion — this alters dermoscopic features.
