How many days can it take to get rid of moles on the face

Removing moles on the face usually takes 7-14 days for recovery, depending on the method of mole removal, personal physique, and postoperative care. After using laser to remove moles, the epidermal wound usually forms scabs within 3-5 days and sheds scabs within 7-10 days. At this stage, it is necessary to keep the wound dry and avoid getting wet or scratching with hands. The recovery period for frozen mole removal is slightly longer, and it may take 10-14 days to complete the scab shedding process. The treated area may experience temporary redness and swelling. Surgical resection and suturing have the longest recovery time, with suture removal taking 5-7 days and complete healing taking about 14 days. Regular disinfection and dressing changes are required after surgery. Mild itching or pigmentation may occur during the recovery period, which is a normal phenomenon. Moles in different parts of the body have slightly different recovery rates due to differences in skin thickness, and areas with strong sebum secretion such as the nasal wing heal slowly. Strict sun protection after surgery can help reduce the risk of pigmentation.

It is recommended to choose a reputable medical institution for operation and avoid strenuous exercise or high temperature environments after surgery. If there is abnormal redness, swelling, exudation or persistent pain during the recovery period, timely follow-up is required. Daily diet should be light, supplementing with vitamin C and high-quality protein can help with wound repair, and avoiding spicy and stimulating foods. Physical sun protection should be strengthened within 3 months after surgery to prevent pigment deposition caused by ultraviolet radiation.
