Minor Surgery & Skin Lesions

Assessment and removal of moles, cysts and lumps

Sterile surgical instruments laid out on a clinical tray

Dr Wander performs a range of minor surgical procedures in a fully equipped clinical room at the Hospital of St John & St Elizabeth.

This includes assessment and removal of skin lesions such as moles, cysts, lipomas and skin tags, as well as joint and soft-tissue injections.

Every procedure begins with a careful consultation to confirm the diagnosis, explain the options and agree the most suitable approach.

From £250 depending on the size, number and complexity of lesions. Histology, dressings and follow-up are charged separately.

  • Assessment of moles and pigmented lesions
  • Removal of cysts, lipomas and skin tags
  • Cryotherapy for warts and verrucae
  • Joint and soft-tissue injections
  • Histology and follow-up where indicated

Frequently Asked

Will the removed lesion be sent for testing?

Where clinically appropriate, removed tissue is sent for histology to confirm the diagnosis and rule out any concerning features. Results are discussed with you at follow-up.

Will I be left with a scar?

Any procedure that breaks the skin can leave a scar. Dr Wander will discuss the likely cosmetic outcome and, for cosmetically sensitive areas, may recommend referral to a plastic surgeon.
