Wart & Mole Removal in Amravati

About Warts and Moles

Warts are viral skin infections caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), while moles are benign melanocytic growths. Both are common but can be effectively removed.

Warts

Types

• Common Warts: Rough, raised lesions usually on hands
• Plantar Warts: On soles of feet, can be painful
• Flat Warts: Smooth, flesh-colored, usually on face or hands
• Genital Warts: Require special evaluation and treatment

Transmission

Warts spread through direct contact or contaminated surfaces. Person-to-person transmission is possible.

Moles

Types

• Common Nevi: Normal, benign moles present from birth or appearing gradually
• Dysplastic Nevi: Atypical moles requiring monitoring
• Other benign growths: Seborrheic keratosis, dermatofibroma and similar lesions (not true moles) can also be assessed and removed

Evaluation

We assess all moles using dermatoscopy to identify any concerning features requiring further evaluation.
