Safe, Gentle Removal of Skin Tags, Moles, and Benign Lesions

At The Canmore Clinic in Dunfermline, we offer non-surgical lesion removal for a range of benign skin concerns, including skin tags, moles, warts, seborrhoeic keratoses, and other common lesions.

Led by experienced private GP Dr Matt Bulkeley, our service is designed to be quick, comfortable, and minimally invasive — helping you feel confident in your skin again.

What Can We Remove?

We assess and remove a wide range of non-cancerous skin lesions, including:

  • Skin tags
  • Benign moles (following clinical assessment)
  • Warts and verrucas
  • Seborrhoeic keratoses (age warts)
  • Cherry angiomas (red spots)
  • Other common benign lumps or bumps

If you’re unsure what your lesion is, we recommend starting with a Mole Review to ensure the lesion is suitable for cosmetic removal.

How Does Lesion Removal Work?

Depending on the type, size, and location of the lesion, we may use one of the following safe, non-surgical techniques:

  • Cryotherapy: Freezing the lesion with liquid nitrogen
  • Electrocautery: Gently burning off the lesion using a fine electrical current
  • Excision: Removing the lesion with a sterile blade under local anaesthetic (if appropriate)

All procedures are carried out in a clinical, hygienic setting with a focus on patient comfort and safety.

What to Expect

  • A consultation with Dr Matt Bulkeley to assess the lesion and recommend the most appropriate treatment
  • The procedure is usually performed in the same appointment or scheduled shortly after
  • Minimal downtime — most patients return to normal activities straight away
  • Clear aftercare instructions to support optimal healing

How Much Does It Cost?

Lesion removal costs depend on the number and type of lesions being treated. As a guide:

  • Consultation & assessment: £150
  • Single lesion removal: from £200
  • Additional lesions: quoted at the time of consultation

Most removals leave minimal or no scarring, especially when performed by an experienced clinician. We’ll explain what to expect based on the lesion type and your skin.

Do I need a GP referral to have a lesion removed?

No referral is necessary. You can book directly with us. We do recommend an initial assessment to confirm the lesion is safe to remove.

Can you remove multiple lesions in one visit?

Yes, in many cases we can treat multiple lesions in the same appointment. Pricing will be discussed at your consultation.
