Cosmetic Mole Removal
Quick, clean mole removal with the Surgitron
Benign moles that bother you for appearance or irritation can be removed in the clinic using the Surgitron, a radiofrequency device that avoids cutting with a scalpel.
Book an appointment
Dr Mahmoud welcomes patients from Caboolture, Moreton Bay and across the Sunshine Coast.
How it works
The Surgitron uses fine, high-frequency radio waves to remove the mole at the surface of the skin. Instead of cutting with a scalpel, the device works precisely on the lesion you want removed.
Many people choose this option because it is done in the clinic, usually without stitches, and healing is typically quick. Healing and the final result vary between people and depend on where the mole is and how it heals, so Dr Mahmoud will discuss what to expect before the procedure.
What to expect
- Done in the clinic in one visit
- Usually no stitches needed
- Minimal scarring is expected
- Aftercare instructions given on the day
- Follow-up if needed to check healing
Check before you remove
Cosmetic removal is for moles that are benign and bothering you. It is not a substitute for a skin check.
Dr Mahmoud will assess the mole at your consultation and decide whether cosmetic removal is suitable.
Fees and Medicare
Cosmetic mole removal is generally not covered by Medicare, so it is not usually bulk-billed. Fees vary by clinic, so please call the clinic you choose to confirm the cost before your visit.
