Mole mapping
30 mins
Are you concerned about a mole or lesion you have and struggling to get a GP appointment?
Come and have your moles checked by consultant dermatologists.
Appointment covers screening on one mole only or £15 extra for additional mole.
If a consultant reports the mole is of concern, they will ask the patient to see their GP or a dermatologist. A mole of concern will also trigger a call back for our team, this means we will telephone the patient, to check they have read and understood the report and they know to see a GP/dermatologist.
If the report comes back ok then we can go ahead and remove the mole or leison.
Filiform wart
30 mins
Warts are small, rough, viral growths on the skin. They are very common and are usually spread by direct skin-to-skin contact or indirectly through shared contact with contaminated surfaces. Warts do not usually cause any other symptoms in people with normally functioning immune systems and usually resolve without treatment, although this can take months or years.

Moles
45 mins
The majority of us have some moles and, generally, they are benign. They are a form of pigmented naevi that are commonly found on the face and body, varying in size and colour from pale tan to brown to blue/black and often developing deep terminal hairs in them because of a well-developed blood supply. Generally it is best to avoid treating moles, but if yours is causing you severe distress it may be able to be treated with diathermy. You should always consult your GP before mole reduction treatment and some electrologists may need written consent from your doctor.

Skin tags
30 mins
Skin tags are benign, innocuous growths which vary in size, shape and attachment. They are often found in areas where there is friction, such as where the skin creases or clothes rub. Skin tags (technically known as fibro-vascular papilloma) are increasingly common as we age and affect almost half of the population. While they are benign and do not pose any direct risk to your health, skin tags can easily be removed if they are impacting on your self esteem or mental well-being.

Seborrhoeic Keratosis
30 mins
Seborrhoeic keratosis is a benign, asymptomatic mass, primarily caused by the ageing process. It is also known as seborrhoeic warts, senile warts, barnacles or basal cell papilloma. They have a thick wart-like surface and are usually colourless when they appear and become brown to black over time. Seborrhoeic keratosis can be confused with other skin conditions, so it is advisable to seek a GP’s advice before visiting an electrologist.
