Mole Removal on the Bikini Line?

baileyemmaJul 6, 2009
I have a mole a little bigger than a pencil head. It's very unattractive, considering where it is, the bikini line. I want to get it removed, but i've heard two stories. Some say it will leave scars, and a scar on my bikini would be just as unattractive. However, I want to get it removed as simple as possible. Does anyone know if it will leave a scar and how big that scar may be? And does anyone know a simple way I can get it removed by? Thanx.

The cost of mole removal like other cosmetic surgery varies considerably across the country and even in the same area. South Florida tends to have lower fees then more expensive areas such as New York or Los Angeles. We charge starting at $150 for mole removal.

Your dermatologist can tell you what the skin lesion is and all the options available whether he or she does the procedure or not. Some flesh colored moles are shaved off with no stitching needed and cosmetically look much better than excising them and leaving a scar. Some bumps are not moles...

I would highly recommend that you see a board certified facial plastic surgeon or an oculoplastic surgeon for an evaluation and possible treatment.
