Mole and wart removal in Vijayawada

Mole and wart removal takes off unwanted skin growths on the face or body under local anaesthesia. At GIA Clinics in Vijayawada it is done by Dr Sai Santosh, an oral and cranio-maxillofacial surgeon, who first checks each mole and sends any that look suspicious for laboratory testing. It is available at both our Gunadala and Gurunanak Colony clinics.

Is it right for you

Who it suits.

Your first visit answers this properly, with an examination and, where needed, a scan, before you commit to anything.

Usually suits you if

  • Raised moles on the face that catch on razors, clothes or jewellery
  • Warts on the face, hands or body that have not gone with home treatment
  • Skin tags and small growths you want removed for appearance
  • Moles that you would like checked and removed at the same time

Tell us first if

  • A mole has changed in size, shape or colour, bleeds or itches
  • You tend to form keloids or thick scars
  • You take blood thinners or have diabetes
  • You are pregnant

Questions

Common questions.

Answers to be checked by the doctor

Will my mole be tested?

Every mole is assessed before removal. Moles that look unusual or have changed are sent to a laboratory, and you are told the result at your review.

Will it leave a mark?

A small mark is usual. It often fades over a few months, especially with sun protection.

Can warts come back?

Warts are caused by a virus and can sometimes return or appear nearby. Further treatment may be needed if they do.

How long does healing take?

Small areas usually heal within one to two weeks. Larger removals with stitches may take a little longer.
