Mole Removal

Cosmetic Mole Removal 

Dr. Heidi believes that the only appropriate way to remove moles are either biopsy or surgery; to cut the lesion and submit the specimen to the pathology lab for evaluation under the microscope. The reason is that here is currently no clinical way to guarantee a pigmented (or non-pigmented) lesion is not melanoma or a bad mole at risk for melanoma. Therefore, destruction of the surface part of a mole with lasers is not advised.
