Of course, if malignancy is suspected, the mole is excised and a pathological examination of the tissue is performed to determine whether it is malignant or not. In general, if no malignant findings are found with a dermascope and even benign moles are removed by excision, the scars left after excision are often more noticeable than the mole itself. Moles are classified by shape as follows: 1. Raised moles 2. Slightly raised moles 3. Flat moles. Of these, raised moles are easier to remove and are less likely to leave scars. For about 30 years, mole removal has been performed using the vaporization method with carbon dioxide laser irradiation. When you hear the word laser, you may think of something cutting-edge, but the principles of the carbon dioxide laser device itself have hardly evolved since 30 years ago. The theory is also the same. Just because it is a carbon dioxide laser does not mean it will remove the mole cleanly. We offer unlimited carbon dioxide laser irradiation for mole removal at low cost. We receive many consultations about cases where moles were not removed by simply irradiating them at a medical institution and only burn scars remained. It is not true that carbon dioxide laser can be used to remove moles cleanly. In particular, for raised moles, we recommend a method of carefully and precisely evaporating the mole tissue with high-frequency heat to avoid post-burn scarring and remove the scars in an inconspicuous manner. We do not dare to irradiate carbon dioxide laser. Of course, advanced techniques are required technically, but in most cases, it can be removed very cleanly and the postoperative scars are not noticeable. For flat moles, the pigment reaches the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue, so if you try to remove it completely in one go, it is necessary to evaporate the deep parts as if it is being gouged out, and it is prone to scarring, so it is often difficult to remove it completely in one session. In that respect, if you first evaporate the raised mole tissue to a flat surface, the wound will heal cleanly and scars will be less likely to remain. A specialist can diagnose moles preoperatively to determine what treatment is best and what care is required.
