Skin Lesions
Surgical Removal of Skin Lesions
Probus Surgical Centre provides a high quality private service for the removal of various inconvenient and unsightly skin lesions, including moles, cysts, lipomas, warts and skin tags that are not covered by the NHS.
The service comprises a ‘one-stop’ combined consultation and simple surgical procedure, using local anaesthetic, for the removal of single or multiple lesions.
The vast majority of procedures that we perform do not require stitches.
What are skin lesions?
Benign skin lesions are extremely common. Generally, they are characterised as a lump of varying sizes either on the surface or below the surface of the skin. They are harmless and do not necessarily need to be removed. However, some people might want to remove them for aesthetic reasons or if they are in an uncomfortable place on the body.

Histology
