Clinical removal, not cosmetic burning

Skin lesion removal at Changes Clinic is a minor surgical procedure carried out under local anaesthetic. We remove cysts, lipomas, moles, skin tags, warts, milia and other benign skin lesions through excision, using a technique appropriate to the type, size and location of the lesion. This is not the same as surface-level removal methods offered in beauty settings. When a lesion is excised surgically, the entire lesion including any root or capsule is removed. This produces a cleaner result and a much lower rate of recurrence.

Our clinicians assess every lesion before any treatment is recommended. This assessment covers the appearance, size, border, symmetry, colour and any changes the patient has noticed over time. We follow the ABCDE assessment criteria for pigmented lesions to identify any features that warrant referral for further investigation before removal. If there is any concern, we refer before we treat.

Where clinically indicated, we can send excised tissue for histological examination. We do not downgrade this step. If there is a clinical reason to have a lesion analysed, we will recommend it and arrange it.

We remove cysts (including epidermoid and pilar cysts), lipomas, moles, skin tags, warts, dermatofibromas and other benign skin lesions. We treat lesions on the face, scalp, neck, back, chest, arms and other body areas. Treatment is available for patients aged 18 and over.

Lesion size, depth and location determine the technique used and the time required. Your clinician will give you a clear assessment of what the procedure involves and what to expect from the healing period at your consultation.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I went for an ultrasound scan due the NHS appointment waiting time was a longtime away, the service I recieved from Andrea was excellent, second to none, Andrea explained everything including the results of the scan straight afterwards.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

She made me feel completely at ease. Such a down-to-earth lady that you can feel genuinely comfortable with. Her prices are so reasonable and very affordable too. I highly recommend Andrea

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common questions

How far is Changes Clinic from Chichester?

Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. From Chichester, the drive takes around 20 to 25 minutes heading east on the A27. Free parking is available at the clinic.

Is a consultation required before skin lesion removal?

Yes. Our clinician needs to assess the lesion before recommending a removal technique. This assessment covers the clinical characteristics of the lesion, your medical history, any blood thinning medications and the suitability of the area for minor surgery. For any lesion with features that raise concern, we will refer before proceeding with removal. The consultation is included in your appointment.

What results should I expect after skin lesion removal?

The lesion is removed at the appointment. You will leave with a small wound closed with sutures. Sutures are typically removed at 7 to 14 days. A small scar is expected at the excision site and will fade over the following six to twelve months. The outcome depends on the size and location of the lesion and how your skin heals. Your clinician will advise you on scar care after the procedure.

What makes Changes Clinic different from a beauty salon offering lesion removal?

Surgical skin lesion removal is a medical procedure. It requires clinical training, sterile technique and proper assessment before any tissue is removed. At Changes Clinic, our clinicians carry out a structured assessment of every lesion, work under CQC-registered clinical governance and can refer for histology where appropriate. Non-clinical venues offering laser or cryotherapy lesion removal do not conduct surgical assessment, cannot send tissue for analysis and are not regulated as medical facilities.
