Procedure Details and Recovery
Before any procedure, you will have a thorough consultation (priced at £180) to discuss your concerns, assess the lesion, and determine the best course of action. If a surgical excision is required, it will be performed under local anaesthetic. This means you will be awake, but the area will be completely numb, ensuring a pain-free experience.
Recovery is typically straightforward. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and offer follow-up appointments for wound assessment and suture removal. Our nursing team is available for dressing changes (from £140) to ensure optimal healing.
