What is the cost and procedure for removing a mole on my inner upper thigh?

Question

I have had a large, raisedmole on the inside of my upper right thigh where my leg meets my groin since I was a child. For cosmetic as well as potential health reasons, I want to have it removed. What would the cost be to have a mole removed in this area? What is the procedure like? Could it be shaved off rather than cut out?

Cosmetic moles can be removed with minimal scarring in many cases. I would suggest a consultation to go over cost of removal, anesthesia, and need for a biopsy. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

The cost would depend on the size and location of the mole.  Sometimes a mole is too big and needs to be removed in stages which would also impact the cost.

David Reinstadler, MD · Answer

I would recommend visiting with a physician in person so the process can be better evaluated. There are many factors that play into the cost and complexity of the procedure. Best of luck
