Getting a mole/wart thing on my scalp removed. what can i expect?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Removal: Typically if a mole specimen is going to be sent for biopsy, the area is numbed with a tiny needle and then removed with a blade or scalpel. Other treatment includes freezing a wart with liquid nitrogen ( stings for a few minutes due to the extreme coldness of the spray). Talk to your physician about all options.
