Treatments for Skin Lesions and Moles in Farnham

Skin lesions and moles are very common, but it is always important to understand what you are treating before considering removal. You may have a mole, skin tag, wart, verruca, milia or another visible skin concern that feels uncomfortable, catches on clothing, affects your confidence or has recently changed in appearance.

At The Beauty Alchemist in Farnham, Surrey, we take a careful, medically led approach to skin concerns. Your consultation will focus on assessment, suitability and guidance, helping you understand the safest and most appropriate next step.

Our aim is to provide clear advice, professional care and treatment options that are tailored to your individual concern.

What Causes Skin Lesions & Moles?

Skin lesions and moles can develop for many different reasons, and not all require treatment or removal.

Common causes include:

  • Genetics 
  • Natural skin changes 
  • Sun exposure 
  • Ageing 
  • Friction from clothing or jewellery 
  • Viral causes, such as warts and verrucas 
  • Blocked keratin, such as milia 
  • Hormonal changes 
  • Skin type 
  • Previous skin trauma or irritation 

While many skin lesions are harmless, any mole or lesion that has changed in size, shape, colour, texture, sensation or bleeding pattern should be assessed appropriately before treatment is considered.

What to Expect from Treatment

Your treatment journey begins with a consultation at The Beauty Alchemist in Farnham, where we assess the area of concern and discuss your symptoms, history and reason for seeking treatment.

We will ask whether the lesion has changed, whether it causes discomfort and whether there are any features that may need further medical assessment. Where appropriate, a mole check or scan may be recommended before any removal is considered.

If the concern is suitable for treatment, we will explain the available options, what to expect, any downtime, aftercare and whether a mark or scar may remain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Moles and pigmented lesions should be assessed before removal to ensure treatment is suitable and safe.

Suitable benign concerns may include skin tags, warts, verrucas, milia and selected skin lesions.

Not all moles are suitable for removal in clinic. Some may need further medical assessment or referral.

Seek assessment if a mole changes in size, shape, colour, border, texture, sensation, begins bleeding, becomes itchy or looks noticeably different from your other moles.

Most clients find treatment manageable. Your practitioner will explain what to expect and whether any numbing or comfort measures are appropriate.

Any procedure that removes or treats a skin lesion can leave a mark or scar. This will be discussed during consultation.

Warts and verrucas can sometimes recur because they are linked to a viral cause.

You do not need to know before booking. Your consultation will help identify the type of lesion and the most appropriate next step.
