Mole Removal
One of the top questions we always get is ‘How to remove moles?’. When it comes to mole removal, it is recommended to seek the advice of a doctor with experience in aesthetics & skin care.
Moles are usually removed for the suspicion of skin cancer or for cosmetic reasons. It is important to first identify the types of moles before removal.
The techniques can also be used to remove skin bumps such as milia seeds, oil seeds, warts, & skin tags. Generally, the benefits of laser mole removal are
- Low risk of scarring & infections
- Effectively remove moles
- Option for histology when clinically appropriate
- Performed by approved doctors
There are a few ways to remove moles (surgical or non-surgical) in Singapore. The procedure is fast (10–15 minutes) with immediate results and minimal downtime.
Key point: Most people have ~10–40 moles. Changes in a mole’s asymmetry, border, color, diameter or evolution (the ABCDE signs) warrant medical review.
Understanding How to Remove Moles
How to remove moles?
Moles form when melanocytes (pigment cells) cluster. Many are benign and can be treated in clinic. Method choice depends on size, depth, location and clinical suspicion:
-
Laser (CO₂ / other lasers): best for small, superficial or flat moles where no tissue sample is required. Some cases need a second touch‑up.
-
Shave/electrocautery: suitable for many raised benign lesions.
-
Surgical excision: preferred for larger/deeper or atypical moles; allows lab testing of the specimen.
Note on sessions: Many moles are removed in one visit; select laser cases may need 1–2 sessions depending on depth and pigmentation
Mole removal benefits:
- Doctor assessment on types of mole
- Laser mole removal with a scar-minimising approach
- Minimal downtime procedures for eligible case
- Medical protocol for removal aftercare
Mole removal details:
- Mole assessment by doctor based on ascertaining type of mole
- Topical numbing cream will be applied prior to procedure to reduce pain
- 10-minute laser removal performed by a doctor
- Minimal downtime

Moles form due to a mix of genetics and UV exposure
Moles are developed when melanocytes (skin cells) mature in clusters or clumps. Melanocytes are cells that contain melanin, the natural pigment that imparts the skin its colour. They are found all over the body. Moles form due to a mix of genetics and UV exposure. Sun protection still matters because UV contributes to skin damage and melanoma risk, but not all moles are caused by the sun.
Sun damage to the skin can cause a whole range of issues, with the worst being skin cancer. It is essential to apply at least SPF 50 sunscreen daily to prevent UV damage and pigment change risk. Although all moles have the ability to turn into melanoma, for the most part, the chance is very slight. Always remember, prevention is better than cure.
For individuals with fair skin, it is easier for moles and pigments to develop; extra sun protection efforts should be taken to ensure a safe journey.
How to evaluate my mole?
What are the Different Types of Moles?
In order for our doctor to determine whether a mole requires further assessment, we can adopt the ABCDE method. It is a standard guideline to determine whether the mole is safe. ABCDE is an acronym for:
Asymmetry: Whether the mole structure is irregular and asymmetrical
Border: The mole’s boundaries are asymmetrical, or the mole is bleeding
Colour: The mole is coloured in a variety of colours, not just one shade.
Diameter: The mole is greater than 6 mm in size
Evolve: Whether the mole has increased in size over time
Typically, if there is an increase in size, changes in colour, a bleeding mole, or a history of skin cancer in the family, it is advised to seek the advice of a skin specialist for further assessment.
In most cases, moles can be easily removed with a fractional CO₂ laser.

What is the Difference Between Laser, Electrocautery, and Surgical Mole Excision?
Laser, electrocautery, and surgical excision are common mole removal methods in Singapore.
Laser is best for small, flat moles with minimal downtime. Electrocautery targets raised moles using heat, while surgical excision is ideal for deep or suspicious moles that may need lab testing.
Electrocautery Mole Removal
Electrocautery uses heat to remove raised, non-cancerous moles. It’s quick, requires little downtime, and usually leaves minimal scarring. This method is not appropriate for deep or irregular moles.
Surgical Mole Excision
Surgical excision cuts out the mole and a small margin of skin. It’s recommended for larger or atypical moles, especially if lab testing is needed. Stitches are required, and light scarring may occur.
| Method | Best for | Typical cost (SGD) | Sessions | Scars / marks | Histology? | Downtime |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Laser (CO₂/others) | Small, superficial or flat benign moles | ~$80–$300 per mole | Often 1; sometimes 1–2 | Small flat mark possible | Usually no (ablated) | ~1–2 weeks |
| Shave / Electrocautery | Many raised benign lesions | Clinic‑specific; often laser‑like | Usually 1 | Small superficial mark possible | Frequently yes (if sampled) | ~1–2 weeks |
| Surgical Excision | Larger/deeper or atypical moles | ~$400–$1,000 per mole | 1 | Linear scar (stitches) | Yes (specimen sent to lab) | Suture care 1–2 weeks |
Laser Mole Removal
Why Choose Laser Mole Removal?
Laser mole removal is a popular option in Singapore for individuals seeking to remove small, benign moles with minimal discomfort.
CO₂ lasers ablate (vaporise) the superficial tissue under local anaesthesia. The treated spot forms a protective film/crust and usually heals over ~1–2 weeks. Deeper or atypical lesions are better managed with excision so tissue can be examined if needed.
It is especially suited for flat or lightly raised moles on the face, neck, and body. Since no cutting or stitching is involved, laser treatment is often chosen for its gentle approach and shorter recovery time compared to surgical methods.
Not all moles are ideal candidates for laser, so a proper consultation is essential to determine if this treatment is suitable for your skin type and mole characteristics.
Benefits of Laser Mole Removal

- Quick in-clinic treatment with minimal downtime
- Suitable for facial and visible areas
- Less risk of scarring for eligible moles
- Comfortable experience with numbing cream applied
- Gradual fading of the mole for natural-looking results
- Often completed in one or two sessions

Mole Removal Before and After
Frequently Asked Questions
Wait until the surface has re‑epithelialised—often around 1–2 weeks—and your clinician has confirmed it’s safe. Use clean tools and remove gently.
Early on you may see redness and a protective film or light crust. With clean, moist, covered care, the area smooths over 1–2 weeks; the colour blends over several weeks.
No—don’t DIY. Home devices and creams risk scarring, infection and missing out on skin cancer. A clinician should examine the spot and, if needed, send tissue for lab testing.
Not always. Pathology is advised for atypical features or when a sample is taken during excision/shave. Energy‑based ablation usually does not produce a specimen.
Some people develop post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which can leave a lighter patch that often improves over weeks to months. If it continues, please consider discussing options during your review.
Dermatology guidance often prefers plain petroleum jelly to maintain a moist environment and reduce irritation. Topical antibiotics aren’t routinely required and can cause rashes; use only if prescribed.
Elevate your head with extra pillows for a few nights and avoid pressure on the site. A cool compress (not directly on fresh wounds) can help with temporary swelling.
Tell your clinician if you form keloids. Technique and aftercare can be tailored; silicone gel/sheets after closure, sun protection, and avoiding tension/friction can help reduce risk.
Recurrence can happen if pigment or tissue remains, especially after superficial methods. Book a review if you notice regrowth or changes—your doctor will check if a touch‑up or a different method is appropriate.
It depends on the method and whether hair follicles were removed. Some hairs may return over time; if regrowth bothers you, we can reassess or plan a touch‑up.
Mild itch is common as skin heals. Keep the site moisturised with plain petroleum jelly and protected; see us if itch is intense, a rash develops, or there’s increasing redness or pain.
Wait until the wound has sealed and any sutures are out—commonly at least a week. Pools, hot tubs, and saunas increase infection or maceration risk; get the go-ahead at a review.
Avoid strenuous activity or anything that stretches the wound until it seals—often 10–14 days for sutured sites. Light walking is usually fine; stop if there is pain, pulling, or bleeding.
Keep the area dry for the first 24–48 hours unless your clinician advises otherwise. Then shower gently, avoid scrubbing, pat dry, and reapply the dressing/ointment as directed.
Most sites close in about 2–3 weeks, sometimes up to 4 weeks. The face and neck often settle faster; areas under tension (back, legs, chest) can take longer. Mild redness is expected and fades over weeks to months. Always follow the aftercare plan given at your visit.
Short answer: Most sites close in ~2–3 weeks, sometimes up to 4 weeks, with the face often settling faster than areas under tension (back/legs).
-
Expect day‑to‑day activity with mild soreness; follow wound‑care instructions.
-
The redness fades over weeks or months as the scar matures.
For the vast majority of patients, one session would suffice. However, based on the treatment used, certain patients can experience early recurrence and need further sessions to be completely free of the mole.
However, if a mole is found to be cancerous, a formal surgical excision with margins is expected.
For certain moles that are deeply rooted, our doctor will advise performing the mole removal over a few sessions to ensure a lower risk of scarring. We will reassess in a week’s time to determine whether more sessions are required.
