We provide safe, secure and successful benign mole removal Bolton at Cryosonic, so you can enjoy feeling confident in your skin. Whether you’re self-conscious of the mole marring your appearance, or it’s giving you enough of a rash that you’re struggling to sleep at night, or you just feel like you want your mole gone, we’re here for you.
Benign moles are typically non-cancerous growths that we get as people get older. Though most of them are harmless, you might want to remove a skin tag for cosmetic reasons or if it’s becoming irritated by your clothing or shaving.
We perform the latest non-surgical treatments like cryotherapy (cryotherapy for warts) for removing moles with very little discomfort and downtime.
Yes, taking out a non-cancerous mole is safe — as long as it’s done by experienced professionals like us at Cryosonic in Bolton! We know the last thing anyone wants to do is go into a skin appointment in the dark, so we make sure you feel informed and comfortable with the process before we even begin.
What makes it safe? The first thing we want to do is to confirm that the mole is benign (non-cancerous) – this is done by looking at the mole. If we’re uncertain, we might advise seeing a dermatologist or your GP first.
After we’re sure it’s safe to go ahead, we treat with clinically approved methods that are skin-kind, like cryotherapy (freezing the mole) treatment that doesn’t involve cutting or stitching.
There’s almost no downtime, and we provide you with aftercare to assist the site in healing well. There are risks involved with any treatments, but we do our best to keep your risks low and your gains high!

Is It Possible to Have a Benign Moles Removed With No Scar?
It’s impossible to ensure no scarring whatsoever, but the majority of clients at Cryosonic will experience minimal to no visible scarring after mole removal.
We’re careful to use methods that reduce trauma to the skin, and we’ll give you aftercare tips to assist in ensuring your skin heals as cleanly as possible.
It’s not always easy to tell the difference between a harmless mole and one that could be a sign of something more serious, like melanoma.
That’s why it’s important to keep an eye on any changes in your benign moles—especially in shape, colour, or size.
Here are some warning signs to look out for using the ABCDE rule:
If you notice any of these, or if a mole becomes itchy, painful, bleeds, or starts growing quickly, it’s essential to get it checked by a GP or dermatologist.
At Cryosonic, we only remove moles we believe to be benign. If there’s any doubt, we’ll always refer you to the right medical expert before proceeding.
Healing will depend on the technique used and your skin type, but most people recover within 7 to 14 days following benign mole removal.
Following treatment, you may see a small scab or redness where the mole was but eventually this too will disappear.
This is completely normal. Ideally, you don’t want to be picking at the area and should be following aftercare advice (like the below guide) we give which can include:
Keeping the area dry and clean
Topical ointment treatment if advised
Staying out of the sun or wearing SPF
The days will pass and the skin will heal and flatten. For most, the area fades well and with good attention, scarring is minimal to none
Benign mole removal is generally safe, but like any cosmetic procedure, it does come with a few risks. The good news is that most of these can be managed or avoided with proper care and by choosing a reputable clinic like Cryosonic.
Possible risks include:
Mild pain or discomfort during or after treatment (usually short-lived)
Redness or swelling, which usually settles within a few days
Scarring (often minimal, especially with non-invasive methods)
Infection – rare, but possible if aftercare isn’t followed
To avoid these risks, it’s crucial to:
Have your mole assessed properly before removal
Choose trained professionals using medical-grade equipment
Follow all aftercare instructions closely
At Cryosonic, your safety is our priority. We’ll walk you through everything before treatment and stay in touch to make sure your healing goes smoothly.
