Benign Skin Lesion Removal
A benign skin lesion refers to an abnormal growth or change in the skin that is non-cancerous and generally harmless. These lesions can vary in appearance, size, and color, and they are typically not associated with the potential to spread to other parts of the body. While benign skin lesions are generally harmless, some may cause cosmetic concerns, discomfort, or be located in areas where they are prone to irritation.
Common benign lesions of the face and neck include:
- Moles (Nevi)
- Skin
- Seborrheic Keratosis
- Cysts
- Lipomas

Comprehensive Consultation
The journey to smoother, clearer skin begins with a detailed consultation with Dr. Dadgostar. During this personalized session, she assesses the specific characteristics of your benign skin lesions, discusses your concerns, and develops a tailored removal plan based on your unique skin type and needs.
A thorough diagnostic evaluation of the benign skin lesions is performed, ensuring an accurate understanding of their nature. This step is crucial in determining the most effective and appropriate removal method for optimal results.
Based on the diagnostic assessment, Dr. Dadgostar will review range of treatment options including surgical excision, cryotherapy, or other specialized techniques. The choice of method is tailored to achieve optimal outcomes while considering your comfort and preferences.
Procedure
Removal of benign skin lesions are performed under local anesthetic. Depending on the type of lesion, size, location, and excision method, the process will require 0.5-1 hours. Dr. Dadgostar employs advanced techniques to minimize scarring during the removal process. Careful incision placement and closure methods contribute to a smoother healing process and a more cosmetically favorable outcome. Dissolvable or non-dissolvable sutures may be placed.
Recovery and Post-Operative Care
Recovery and post-operative care are crucial aspects of the benign skin lesion removal process to ensure optimal healing and long-lasting results. Following the procedure, patients are guided through a carefully outlined recovery plan.
This typically involves keeping the surgical area clean, avoiding excessive pressure on the site, and taking any prescribed medications for pain management if necessary. Most sutures that are used are self-dissolving, if any sutures need to be removed this will be done 1 week after surgery.
Patients can expect a relatively quick recovery, with minimal discomfort and swelling. Most individuals can resume normal daily activities within a short period. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor the healing process, remove any sutures, and address any questions or concerns that may arise.
