Important Information About Mole Removal in Washington DC

Options for Mole Removal

There are several ways moles can be removed, and the best option depends on factors like size, depth, and location. At Metroderm DC, treatments may include surgical excision, which removes the mole entirely along with a small margin of skin; shave removal, which gently reduces the mole so it blends with surrounding skin; or, in some cases, laser technology for smaller or less prominent moles. Your dermatologist will determine which approach is right for you while also deciding whether the mole should be sent for biopsy to rule out skin cancer if it looks abnormal.

What to Expect During The Process

Our mole removal in Washington DC is typically a quick, in-office procedure performed under local anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Most treatments take just a few minutes, and patients can return to normal activities the same day. Depending on the method, you may leave with a small bandage or stitches, and your provider will give you detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and reduce the risk of scarring. If lab testing is recommended, results will be shared promptly so you have clarity about your skin health.

Will There Be a Scar?

We take great care in using the best surgical techniques to close the skin in a way to reduce any possible scarring. In addition, we have post-operative care recommendations to minimize the appearance of a scar. Finally, we offer several cosmetic treatments for new or old scars to flatten or quickly reduce any pigmentation after it heals.
