Mole Removal - What to expect

1 reply

Next week I am having a mole removed under local. The mole itself is basically very upper torso just under my breasts - and in the centre. I guess if you were to get a sternum tattoo it would be there. I genuinely can’t remember what the consultant said in the appointment as it was about two years ago so I’m not fully certain if it’s going to be sent for a biopsy or not.

I know it’ll differ in cases but what should I expect it to look like in the days after the removal? It’s a fairly large/raised mole. How painful will it be, what is the after care?

I had a mole removed on my back. I went home with a dressing stuck on which dp had to change once a day. Saw nurse at the gp 3 days later to get stitches checked. No pain and no other issues.
