Mole Removal Healing Process: A Comprehensive Guide

Introductory Paragraph

The healing stages after mole removal completely depend upon the size of the mole, the method you choose for mole removal, and most importantly, your skin type and overall health.

There are many products and methods for healing after mole removal in Phoenix, AZ. The stages may vary from method to method. Mole removal methods and aftercare are significant, which is why we skin care experts always recommend consulting professional mole removal services.

Stages for mole removal healing depend upon the following;

The healing stages rely entirely upon the method chosen for mole removal. There are two primary methods to remove the moles. Shave excision and surgical excision. 

Methods of mole removal 

1. Shave excision

By using this Dermatology treatment, Skin care experts shave the mole with a thin razor. They also use electrodes for electrosurgical feathering after shaving the mole. This feathering completes the process and manages the wounds. After the shaving process, stitches are not needed. 

Mobile Skin Screening Make sure to use the microscope and professional methods for skin care screening.  

2. Surgical Excision 

This process of removing moles is like traditional surgery. A dermatology expert cut the whole mole and some tissue underneath it. After cutting, they sew the area. They also check the moles carefully to identify any cancer cells afterward.

Stages for mole removal healings 

The mole removal healing process can be divided into five main stages.

Stage one-Immediate Post-Removal Stage

Skin becomes red and swollen right after the mole removal process. Some people also experience some bleeding. This bleeding must be controlled with gentle pressure and a clean bandage. 

At Mobile Skin Screening, we make sure to apply a topical antibiotic ointment or dressing to protect the area.

Stage two-Early Healing Stage 

In the first few days, patients may feel crusting at the mole removal area. It’s a normal stage when your skin starts healing. You should keep the affected area clean, and dry, and avoid using makeup. 

Stage three-Inflammatory stage 

This stage starts after 12 hours of the procedure. The patient feels facial swelling, redness, and discomfort during this stage. You should make sure to keep the area clean to prevent infection. This stage remains for five days on average. 

Stage four-Proliferation stage

At this stage, the scars become raised and darker than the surrounding skin. The scars continuously evolve in his stage. 

Stage five- Scar Maturation stage 

This is the final stage. With time, the scar becomes mature and will typically become less noticeable. Mole scars become flattened and lightened in color. Eventually, the scar blends more and looks the same as the surrounding skin. You should follow your skin expert’s suggestions and aftercare tips to have clear skin. You should keep your skin well-moisturized at this maturity stage and protect the area from sun exposure. 

Aftercare to improve the healing process after mole removal 

Sun rays are not good for your skin health, but after such a mole removal process, these rays are even more harmful. It would help if you avoided UV rays to improve your healing process, especially at the initial stages. Wounds are fresh after the process, which is more likely to darken the affected area after regular exposure to UV light. To avoid such barriers in your healing process, make sure to use sunscreen SPF 30 or cover wounds with sun-protective clothing.

Complications after mole removal 

Make sure to schedule a meeting with your consultant if you feel excessive bleeding or any other infection, such as severe pain, increasing redness, swelling, pus, or discharge from the wound during the healing process.
