TYPES

Common Types of Benign Skin Lesions

Skin growths come in many forms, and our specialists can assess and remove them with the right approach. Common types include:

  • Moles (Nevi) – Dark or flesh-colored spots that may be raised or flat.
  • Skin Tags – Soft, small growths that often appear in skin folds like the neck, armpits, or groin.
  • Seborrheic Keratoses – Rough, wart-like growths that appear as you age.
  • Cysts – Fluid-filled lumps that develop beneath the skin.
  • Lipomas – Soft, fatty lumps that grow slowly under the skin.
  • Dermatofibromas – Firm, raised nodules that sometimes form after minor skin injuries.

If you have a growth that’s changing, causing discomfort, or affecting your confidence, we’re here to help.

Our dermatologists use advanced, minimally invasive techniques to ensure a smooth removal process with little to no downtime. Depending on the type, size, and location of your lesion, we may recommend:

  • Commonly used for warts, seborrheic keratoses, and some moles.

Excision (Surgical Removal)
  • The lesion is carefully cut out using a scalpel.
  • Best for moles, cysts, lipomas, and larger skin growths.
icon
Electrosurgery (Cauterization)
  • Uses controlled heat to remove the lesion and seal the skin.
  • Often used for skin tags and seborrheic keratoses.
icon
Laser Treatment
  • Non-invasive option for certain types of pigmented or raised lesions.
