Skin Lesion Removal

Skin lesions such as moles, skin tags, fibromas, or seborrheic keratoses are extremely common and often harmless, but many patients wish to remove them for cosmetic or comfort reasons. At City Clinic Marbella, we provide safe, precise removal using medical evaluation followed by laser or minimally invasive techniques designed to respect the skin.

Doctors & Specialists:

Dr.Javier Pérez Diez

Skin lesions appear for multiple reasons: genetics, friction, aging, hormonal changes, or accumulated sun exposure. Our team performs a dermatological assessment to identify the type of lesion before selecting the most effective removal technique (laser, radiofrequency, or surgical micro-excision).

Treatments are quick, minimally uncomfortable, and designed to reduce visible marks while improving skin smoothness and confidence. Most lesions can be treated in a single session, with little to no downtime.
