Indications
Moles that change their shape, size, colour or begin to itch or bleed are an indication for a dermatoscopic examination. Undiagnosed, they can potentially turn into a skin cancer such as melanoma. Early diagnosis allows the quick removal of suspicious lesions and the avoidance of complications.
Benign lesions such as fibromas or viral warts can cause mechanical discomfort (abrasions), infections or aesthetic problems. An indication for their removal is their rapid growth, pain or frequent irritation. Treatments such as cryotherapy, electrocoagulation or surgical removal are effective and safe.
Broken capillaries or vascular lesions visible on the face, legs or other parts of the body can be an indication for treatment. If the lesions are visible, cause discomfort or bleed, it is worth undertaking laser therapy or sclerotherapy. Treatment helps improve the skin’s aesthetics and prevents further problems.
Lesions that are asymmetrical, have irregular edges, varied colour or grow quickly require urgent dermatological diagnostics. These may be precancerous conditions (actinic keratosis) or cancers (basal cell carcinoma, melanoma). An indication for intervention is the rapid development of the lesion or the appearance of pain, itching or ulceration.
Types of skin lesions
Skin lesions can take various forms such as macules, papules, blisters, pustules or nodules. They can result from inflammatory conditions, infections, allergies or other dermatological disorders. Some of them, like moles or warts, are benign, while others, e.g. pigmented lesions of irregular shape, may require quick diagnostics to rule out skin cancers.
Diagnostyka zmian
The assessment of skin lesions begins with a detailed dermatological examination, including dermatoscopy, which allows a precise analysis of the lesion’s structure. If necessary, the doctor may order additional tests such as a skin biopsy, allergy tests or laboratory tests. Early diagnostics is crucial, especially for lesions that may be a symptom of more serious systemic diseases.
Leczenie
The treatment of skin lesions depends on their nature and cause. In the case of infections, topical or oral antibacterial, antifungal or antiviral medications are used. Allergic skin lesions require antihistamine therapy and avoidance of allergens, while inflammatory lesions such as eczema or psoriasis are often treated with steroid preparations or calcineurin inhibitors. The therapy is supported by appropriate skin care, which relieves irritation and aids regeneration. Regular visits to the dermatologist help monitor and adjust treatment to the patient’s individual needs.
Frequently asked questions
Which skin lesions can be removed at Luna Clinic?
We remove pigmented moles, fibromas, seborrhoeic and viral warts, sebaceous cysts, lipomas and other benign skin nodules. Lesions suspected of being cancerous we remove surgically with histopathological examination.
Does every lesion need to be examined before removal?
Yes - we assess every lesion dermatoscopically, and excised moles are routinely sent for histopathological examination. This is a guarantee of oncological safety.
What methods do you use to remove skin lesions?
Depending on the nature of the lesion: surgically, with a laser, by electrocoagulation or cryodestruction (freezing). The method is proposed by the doctor after assessing the lesion - not every one may be removed with a laser.
Does the removal of skin lesions hurt?
We perform the treatments under local anaesthesia, so the treatment itself is painless. After the anaesthesia wears off, slight tenderness of the area may appear for 1-2 days.
Is there a scar after removal of the lesion?
After surgical removal a small, linear scar remains, which lightens over time. Ablative methods (laser, cryo) usually leave only a slight lightening of the skin.
Can a removed lesion grow back?
Lesions excised surgically in their entirety do not grow back. After superficial methods (e.g. freezing warts), recurrences requiring repetition of the treatment are possible.
Which moles should cause concern?
Asymmetrical ones, with uneven edges and non-uniform colour, larger than 6 mm and those that change, itch or bleed (the ABCDE rule). Such lesions require an urgent dermatoscopic assessment.
How to prepare for the removal of a skin lesion?
It is enough to come with healthy, non-tanned skin; inform the doctor about blood-thinning medications and a tendency to keloids. For a surgical procedure, plan to spare the area for a few days.
How to care for the skin after the procedure?
Keep the wound clean, use the recommended dressing or ointment, avoid soaking it for 24-48 hours and protect the area from the sun until it is fully healed.
Kiedy poznam wynik badania histopatologicznego?
The result is usually available within 2-3 weeks. We discuss it with the patient and - if necessary - plan further action.
Can skin lesions be removed in summer?
Yes, although after the procedure strict sun protection of the healing area is necessary. We remove suspicious lesions regardless of the season - safety is the priority.
How much does the removal of a skin lesion cost in Wrocław?
The price depends on the size and number of lesions, the method and the histopathological examination. You will receive a precise quote after a consultation; you will find indicative prices in the Luna Clinic price list.
Contraindications
A consultation has no significant contraindications. Any limitations concern selected treatment methods (e.g. laser vs. a tan, isotretinoin vs. pregnancy) - we will discuss them once a diagnosis is established.
How to prepare?
It is worth bringing to the visit:
- a list of medications and supplements taken
- existing documentation and test results
- a list of questions - nothing should slip your mind
- for skin lesions: do not cover them with make-up or irritate them before the visit
How does the procedure go?
We plan the treatment after a thorough skin assessment (with dermatoscopy if needed).
Recovery and recommendations
Diagnostic visits require no recovery. For treatments (e.g. laser) you will receive brief recommendations: sun protection, gentle care and avoiding high temperatures for a few days.
Effects - when and for how long?
Effect: depends on the condition and the therapy plan.

What does skin-lesion removal involve?
Skin lesions is a procedure in the field of dermatology. At Luna Clinic, every treatment plan is created individually - we start with a thorough consultation and qualification, during which the doctor discusses expectations, assesses the starting situation and selects the scope and technique of the procedure. Thanks to this, skin-lesion removal is safe, predictable and tailored to the anatomy and real needs of the specific person. We focus on a natural rather than artificial effect - so that the result emphasises individual beauty and remains in harmony with the rest of the figure or facial features. You will find a full, detailed description of the method in the upper part of this page.
skin-lesion removal - who is it for? Indications and qualification
The best way to answer whether skin-lesion removal is advisable in your case is during a consultation. The doctor always decides on qualification after an examination - we take into account the state of health, expectations and the real possibilities of the given method. If the procedure is not needed or safe at the moment, we will say so directly and suggest a sensible alternative. Such an honest conversation is the basis of a good decision and satisfaction with the result - which is why we never persuade anyone into unnecessary procedures.
How does the procedure go?
The course is planned to take maximum care of your comfort and safety. We work in comfortable conditions that meet all standards, and an experienced team oversees the process. All recommendations - preparation, contraindications and post-procedure conduct - are discussed individually and also provided in writing, so that skin-lesion removal proceeds calmly, predictably and without surprises.
Effects and durability - skin-lesion removal before and after
The effects that skin-lesion removal provides are always assessed individually. A natural, harmonious refreshment of appearance or an improvement of proportions is the goal we strive for with every patient. “Before and after” transformations are best viewed in our results gallery - they show the real outcomes of our work. Remember that the durability and quality of the effect are also influenced by lifestyle, care and consistent adherence to post-procedure recommendations.
Recovery and post-procedure recommendations
Recovery goes most smoothly when you follow the recommendations closely. After the procedure you remain under the clinic’s care - in the first days, contact with a doctor is available, and we schedule follow-up visits until full healing and assessment of the effect. You receive clear instructions on care, activity and any supporting products in writing, so you know exactly what to expect at each stage of returning to form.
Safety, experience and trust
Safety is an absolute priority for us. Skin lesions is performed by Katarzyna Cygan, MD, PhD - a dermatologist and venereologist, with care for safety and an individual approach to the patient. Careful qualification, work in appropriate conditions and the team’s experience allow us to minimise risk and achieve repeatable, aesthetic results. In the field of dermatology, not only technique matters, but also aesthetic sense and trust between patient and doctor - and that is exactly what we build Luna Clinic on every day.
Why Luna Clinic?

It matters to us that every person feels heard and well informed, which is why we present the real possibilities and limitations of the given method and choose the best solution together.
How to prepare for the procedure?
Good preparation translates directly into the course and the effect.

You receive all the guidance clearly and in writing, and our team remains available should any additional questions arise. We always tailor the preparation plan individually, because every situation and every patient is different.
