Why does a dermatologist recommend removing skin lesions?

Here are some reasons:

  • Suspicion of skin cancer: If a skin lesion shows signs that suggest skin cancer, a dermatologist may recommend its removal for further pathological evaluation. Early detection and removal of skin cancer usually leads to a better prognosis.
  • Risk of malignancy: Some skin lesions, such as large moles or certain types of warts, may be at increased risk of developing skin cancer. Removing these lesions can reduce this risk.
  • Aesthetic disturbance: Some skin lesions may be aesthetically disturbing to the patient, even if they are not malignant. These may include a large wart, mole, fibroma, or other skin growth.
  • Distressing symptoms: If a skin lesion causes discomfort, pain, itching, bleeding, or other distressing symptoms, a dermatologist may recommend its removal to alleviate these symptoms.
  • Diagnosis: In some cases, to establish an accurate diagnosis, a dermatologist may recommend removing the skin lesion and performing a histopathological examination (biopsy) to evaluate the tissue under a microscope.
  • Preventing further growth or spread of the lesion: Removing a skin lesion can prevent it from growing or spreading further, which can be especially important for lesions that are easily irritated or prone to mechanical trauma.

In each case, a dermatologist will assess the risks and benefits of removing a given skin lesion and discuss these issues with the patient before starting the procedure.
