Laser mole removal?
 
Has anyone had it done?

I went yesterday and they zapped it. The mole is flat now, but there appears to be like a crater where the mole was... I had a raised one, with deep pigmentation. So they said id have to go back to get another treatment for all the pigment to be gone. Kindof worried the crater is still going to be there :(

how much did it cost?

Mrtemp 04-09-2006 02:10 PM

$120. The place is pretty good, if not expensive. Mine was close to my lip, hence higher priced.

does it hurt at all?

I had one removed when I was a kid with 1990 technology and it hurt like a bitch

Mrtemp 04-09-2006 08:22 PM

Oh hellz yah it hurt. LIke a bitch is an understatement.

Where do you get it done?

Mrtemp 04-10-2006 10:41 AM

Got it done at Kitty's Beauty Studio just outside of chinatown. Apparently, the place is pretty famous, and have been in the business for over 20 years.

Dude it seriously hurts like a bitch. Like they're burning your freakin face off. My friend went and got hers too, she said she was convulsing from pain!

kurayami 04-12-2006 10:24 AM

You guys should see a specialist instead of a beauty salon, my moms friend's daughter got it done, and if you go to beauty salon places, you usually end up with a crater where the mole was.

i'm sorta interested in getting one removed as well, but i'm not sure where to go, maybe i'll see if this place is good, are all the prices about ~$100?

Removing moles use to be free, u can get it done at your family doctor, now it costs $ :( gay

Mrtemp 04-19-2006 01:20 PM

Almost 2 weeks after i got it removed, i still have a "scab" the size of the mole over the laser wound that has yet to fall off. But it seems to be healing nicely, Im not noticing any crater around the mole area like there was originally! woot!

wix 04-19-2006 04:23 PM

aite, post again when it's all healed, best of luck =)

edit: did they charge you again for going in again? or include in the initial payment

Mrtemp 04-19-2006 09:04 PM

No charge for checkup visits after. :)

wix 04-21-2006 05:51 PM

does it really hurt? or you guys are just kidding around. you guys make it sound like it's like getting your eye ripped out and your socket snipped off by scissors like HOSTEL style O_O

twinkle 04-28-2006 06:44 AM

I got one one my face removed from kitty's beauty.Left a crater but went away shorty after healing time. But still left with beautymark,just smaller a lighter. Havent been back for the sencond session cuz holy moses it hurts like nuts!! It was on my face so it hurrrt.

wix 05-15-2006 07:41 AM

So it really works? doesn't leave any weird blemishes :O

yameen 05-16-2006 12:24 AM

is this ~$100 per mole or per visit on many moles?

wix 05-17-2006 12:20 PM

i think it's cost per mole, depending on the size it is and difficulty to remove?

babyshortie 05-26-2006 09:25 PM

i went to a doctor about it before..they quoted me $150 each time, but they apparently it includes all the ones on the face not charged per mole/beauty mark

i am really interested in doing it also since i have a few larger ones on my face

yeah i heard its also better to go to doctors instead of beauty salons

i hope it doesn't hurt more than getting tattooed??

SilverT 12-27-2006 07:33 PM

I used kitty's to remove one mole. It's day 14 and the mole has still not fallen off yet. The receptionist at kitty's said it should take 7-10 days only. How long did it for the scab to come off for you guys?

yameen 12-27-2006 08:15 PM

i just got one done by a specialist today. i asked them about equipment and they say the beauty salons' equipment are cheaper whereas the vancouver skin care centre costs half a million? they're probably biased but i got about 20-25 removed for $200. at first i thought it was $200 for 10 moles which is $20/mole but instead they removed all of them on my face(about 14). they also removed 3-4 at the neck and 2 that's really close to the neck but considered near the top chest. i asked him politely if he could remove the 3 on my arm and he did. so basically mine was ~$10-12/mole. right now i don't know if i should party at new years and get drunk but i'm leaning towards no.

i'm also curious in how long it takes for the scab to heal. I have to go back for another session but it costs another $200 for that session. in total it adds up to $400 which might not be worth it but i suppose doing it at a specialist is better than a beauty salon. that's my story.
