Whether you’re looking for mole removal in Plymouth, skin tag removal in Exeter, cyst removal in North Devon, or treatment for other unwanted skin lesions, our experienced clinicians provide safe, effective care in a professional clinical environment without the need for a GP referral.

Many people choose private dermatology because they want prompt appointments, minimal waiting times and reassurance from experienced clinicians. Whether a lesion is affecting your confidence, causing discomfort, or catching on clothing or jewellery, we’ll assess your concerns and recommend the most appropriate treatment.

Conditions We Commonly Treat

Our private dermatology service offers assessment and treatment for a wide range of benign skin lesions, including:

Moles

Removal of benign moles for cosmetic reasons or because they are causing irritation. Every mole is carefully assessed and, if any suspicious features are identified, we will advise the appropriate NHS referral pathway rather than cosmetic removal.

Cysts

Surgical removal of epidermoid (sebaceous) cysts that have become uncomfortable, recurrent, or cosmetically unwanted.

Lipomas

Removal of benign fatty lumps that are growing, causing discomfort, or affecting your confidence.

Skin Tags

Quick, straightforward removal of skin tags that catch on clothing, jewellery, or become irritated.

Seborrhoeic Keratoses

Treatment of these common, harmless skin growths when they become unsightly or troublesome.

Warts

Assessment and removal of persistent or uncomfortable warts using clinically appropriate treatment techniques.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

Your private dermatology consultation typically includes:

• A comprehensive assessment of your skin lesion.
• Discussion of your diagnosis and treatment options.
• Minor surgical removal or other suitable treatment where appropriate.
• Local anaesthetic for maximum comfort where required.
• Aftercare advice and follow-up recommendations.

Where appropriate, tissue removed during treatment can be sent for histology (laboratory analysis) to provide additional reassurance.

Important Information

If, during your assessment, a lesion appears suspicious for skin cancer, we will explain our findings and recommend the appropriate urgent NHS referral pathway rather than proceeding with cosmetic treatment. Patient safety is always our highest priority.
