Wart, Skin Tag and Mole Removal in Coimbatore

Moles, Warts & Skin Tags — Types & Assessment
Every lesion is examined by a dermatologist before removal. Moles are assessed using the ABCDE rule. Suspicious lesions are biopsied and sent for histopathology — never blindly ablated.
When Should You Worry About a Mole?
The ABCDE rule helps identify suspicious moles that need urgent dermatologist assessment. DermaVue examines every mole with dermoscopy before any removal procedure.
A — Asymmetry: One half of the mole does not match the other half. Benign moles are typically symmetrical.
B — Border: Irregular, ragged, notched, or blurred edges. Benign moles have smooth, even borders.
C — Colour: Multiple shades of brown, black, red, white, or blue within one mole. Benign moles are usually a single shade.
D — Diameter: Greater than 6mm (pencil eraser size). Larger moles need closer monitoring.
E — Evolving: Any change in size, shape, colour, elevation, or new symptoms (itching, bleeding). Most important criterion.
Understanding Warts (Arimpara) & HPV
Warts are caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV) — not poor hygiene. They are contagious through direct skin contact or shared surfaces. In Tamil, warts are commonly called arimpara.
How HPV spreads: Direct contact with a wart. Shared towels, razors, swimming pool surfaces. Self-inoculation (touching a wart then touching another body part). Cuts and scrapes provide entry points.
Why warts recur: Treatment destroys the visible wart but HPV may persist in surrounding skin. The immune system must clear the virus. Recurrence rates are 30–50% without immune-directed therapy. DermaVue combines physical destruction with immunotherapy for resistant warts.

Frequently Asked — Mole, Wart & Skin Tag Removal
Arimpara is the Tamil term for warts — rough, cauliflower-like skin growths caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). Coimbatore's humid climate and dense public transport create ideal conditions for HPV transmission through skin contact. They can spread by touching an infected surface or another person's wart.
RF ablation (radiofrequency) for most warts and skin tags — most precise, minimal scarring. CO2 laser ablation for larger or plantar warts. Cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen) for small common warts. Surgical excision for deep, large, or suspicious lesions requiring histopathology. Method chosen based on lesion type and location.
Moles are pigmented growths from melanocyte clusters — influenced by sun and genetics. Warts are viral growths caused by HPV and are contagious. Skin tags are soft, benign stalked growths caused by skin friction — not infectious. Each requires a different diagnosis and removal technique.
Use the ABCDE rule: Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Colour variation (multiple shades in one mole), Diameter >6mm, Evolving (any change in shape, size, colour, or symptoms like itching or bleeding). Any mole showing these signs must be assessed by a dermatologist immediately — dermoscopy and potentially biopsy are required before removal.
Wart recurrence (10–15%) is possible because HPV can remain latent in surrounding skin tissue. Most professional removals are permanent. Boosting immunity and avoiding touching other warts reduces recurrence risk. Skin tags virtually never recur after complete RF ablation.
Yes. UV radiation stimulates melanocyte activity, increasing both the number and pigment intensity of moles. Coimbatore residents with significant outdoor sun exposure should monitor moles regularly and have any changing mole assessed. Annual dermoscopy check is recommended for those with 20+ moles.
At DermaVue Coimbatore: single skin tag or small wart from ₹3,000; multiple warts from ₹5,000; mole removal ₹5,000–₹15,000 depending on size and depth. Consultation fee is ₹300, which includes dermoscopy assessment.
RF or cryotherapy removal: 7–10 days. CO2 laser ablation: 10–14 days. Surgical excision: 2–3 weeks. Sun protection during healing is critical in Coimbatore to prevent post-removal hyperpigmentation at the site.
HPV thrives in warm, moist environments. Workers in Coimbatore's textile and manufacturing sectors in Peelamedu and Singanallur may contract warts through shared equipment or communal facilities. Early treatment by a board-certified dermatologist prevents spread to family members. RF ablation removes warts in a single session.
Skin tags develop from skin-on-skin friction, common in Coimbatore's warm climate where perspiration increases friction in neck folds, underarms, and groin areas. Obesity and insulin resistance (Type 2 diabetes) also increase skin tag formation. DermaVue removes multiple skin tags in a single RF ablation session with minimal scarring — typically completed in under 30 minutes.
