Mole, cyst, and scar removal are often considered safe procedures, but they do come with some potential risks if not performed by a qualified and experienced surgeon like Dr. Pirani. Common risks include mild swelling, redness, or bruising in the treated area, which generally resolves within a week or two. There is also a small chance of infection, bleeding, or delayed healing.
For scar revision procedures, there is a slight possibility that the new scar may not heal as expected. In rare cases, individuals may experience skin sensation or pigmentation changes around the treated area.
Dr. Pirani takes every precaution to mitigate potential harm and will provide detailed pre- and post-procedure instructions to ensure the skin is properly cared for and treated.
