Skin lesion removal at a surgical clinical standard

Removing a skin lesion is a surgical procedure. The tissue is excised, haemostasis is achieved, and the wound is closed. Done correctly, in a clinical environment with proper technique, the result is clean and the risk of complication is low. At Changes Clinic, our skin lesion removal procedures are carried out by a qualified surgeon at our CQC-registered clinic in Portsmouth, around 15 minutes from Gosport via the Fareham road.

Every patient referred to us for skin lesion removal first undergoes a clinical assessment. We examine the lesion, take a medical history, and assess the most appropriate removal method. For lesions where there is any clinical uncertainty about the nature of the tissue, we arrange for histological analysis of the excised material. This is not optional — it is standard clinical practice. Any provider offering lesion removal without the option of histology is not operating to a medical standard.

Our surgeon will confirm at the consultation what type of lesion you have, whether surgical removal is the right approach, what the procedure involves, and what the healing process looks like. Patients from Gosport and across the Portsmouth area attend our clinic for procedures they could not access quickly through the NHS, or for lesions in locations that benefit from expert surgical placement to minimise scarring.

What we treat

We remove a range of benign and suspected benign skin lesions, including sebaceous cysts, epidermoid cysts, lipomas, moles (including moles that have changed in appearance), skin tags, warts, verrucae, seborrhoeic keratoses, and dermatofibromas. We also see patients with lesions that have been assessed elsewhere and confirmed as benign but are causing discomfort or cosmetic concern.

Removal is carried out under local anaesthetic. Most procedures take between 20 and 45 minutes depending on the size and location of the lesion. Sutures are used where necessary and removed at a follow-up appointment.

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’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 :) .

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 Gosport?

Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. From Gosport, patients typically reach us in 15 to 20 minutes by car, travelling via the A32 through Fareham and then the A27 eastbound towards Cosham. Free parking is available at the clinic.

Is a consultation required before skin lesion removal?

Yes, a medical consultation is required before any procedure. Our surgeon examines the lesion to confirm its nature, assess the appropriate removal method, and discuss any factors — such as the location on the body or the depth of the lesion — that affect how the procedure is carried out. This appointment is also where we discuss histology and arrange for the excised tissue to be sent for analysis if indicated.

How long do results last?

Skin lesion removal is permanent. The lesion is excised and does not regrow. However, new lesions can develop elsewhere on the body over time, particularly in patients with a tendency towards cysts, lipomas, or moles. If you develop a new concern, we can assess it at a separate consultation.

What makes Changes Clinic different from a beauty salon or non-clinical provider?

Skin lesion removal is a surgical procedure. It requires local anaesthetic, sterile technique, knowledge of wound closure, and the clinical judgement to recognise when a lesion should not be removed in a minor surgery setting. At Changes Clinic, procedures are carried out by a qualified surgeon in a CQC-registered clinic. We offer histology, proper aftercare, and follow-up appointments. None of these are available in a non-clinical setting, and attempting skin lesion removal outside a surgical environment carries significant infection and complication risk.
