Before mole removal, a dermatologist or healthcare professional evaluates the mole to determine the best course of action. Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination, where the doctor assesses the mole’s size, shape, color, and any changes over time. If the mole appears irregular or suspicious, a dermatoscope (a specialized magnifying tool) may be used for a closer inspection. In some cases, a biopsy is performed, where a small tissue sample is taken and sent for laboratory analysis to check for signs of skin cancer or abnormal cell growth. Based on the findings, the doctor will recommend an appropriate removal method, such as surgical excision, laser treatment, or cryotherapy, ensuring both safety and effectiveness.
