It can be removed with a CO2 laser, which is considered safe and precise if the doctor assesses that there are no contraindications.

But if the mole/freckle is located "on the lip" (the mucous membrane inside the mouth, or directly on the red border of the mouth)...

The risks of having a mole or freckle removed from the lip.

  1. Bleeding more than normal.
    • The lips have more blood vessels than the rest of the skin.
  2. Wound heals slowly.

  3. There is a chance of permanent scarring or discoloration.
    • Especially "dark lips" or "raised sores".
  4. Pathogens and infections
    • The lips come into contact with saliva and food, increasing the risk of infection after the procedure.
