What are the dangers of removing moles?

Everyone has moles to some extent, the only difference is the location. Some moles grow on the face, which affects the appearance, so some people want to remove them. Now that technology is becoming more and more advanced, removing moles is no longer a problem. But did you know that removing moles also has certain harms?

The dangers of mole removal

Mole removal is the process of removing moles on the skin through medical equipment and technology, thereby achieving the purpose of beautiful skin. Generally speaking, the harm of mole removal is not too great, but it still has a certain impact on us. The main harm of mole removal is that it will leave scars or recurrent infection.

The dangers of mole removal are

1. Scarring

Generally speaking, after a mole is removed, the doctor will ask you not to drink beverages with pigments, and it is also not recommended to eat foods containing soy sauce or vinegar. This is because laser mole removal will leave a small pit on the face. If you eat these foods, the color of the laser area will easily become darker, forming a pigmented mole that is larger than the original one.

However, if you insist on not eating anything containing pigments for more than a week after the mole removal, especially soy sauce and vinegar, then the mark will not be very obvious.

2. Relapse

If it is surgically removed, it generally will not recur. However, if it is removed through laser or other methods, it may recur. Normally, laser mole removal requires three to four sessions, with three to four months in between. It is difficult to completely remove the mole in one session.

3. Infection

We cannot touch or scratch our wounds at will to prevent infection. After removing the mole, we should try not to apply cosmetics on the wounds, as this can also easily lead to infection.

The purpose of mole removal is to remove skin pigmentation, so that you can look more beautiful. The methods of mole removal generally include electrocautery, laser mole removal, surgical removal, etc. Laser mole removal uses laser to instantly release huge energy to act on pigmented tissue, causing the pigment to break up and decompose, be swallowed up by macrophages, and be excreted from the body through lymphatic circulation, thereby achieving the purpose of removing pigment.

Generally speaking, most moles on the face are benign and do not require treatment. However, if the mole is particularly large, or is close to the eye and is likely to affect vision, or if it is suspected to be a malignant lesion, it should be treated as needed.

In traditional Chinese physiognomy, there are many opinions about the location of moles on the face. If the mole is in a good location, it is considered to have a good destiny, but if the mole is in a bad location, it is considered to be a bad omen.

Although this statement has no scientific basis, once heard, people will definitely take it to heart, so many people want to remove moles on their faces;

If you want a good effect from a surgery, both the preparation before the surgery and the maintenance after the surgery are very important. The same is true for laser mole removal. You should pay attention to it before and after the surgery. However, I believe that many people who want to do laser mole removal do not know much about this aspect.

Good preparation before and after the operation is very helpful for the effect of laser mole removal.

[Conclusion] Mole removal is a very common behavior at this stage, especially for people who remove moles on their faces. However, mole removal can also be harmful, so be careful with your moles and don't lose the big picture.
