First Step: An Accurate Diagnosis

The key to any benign growth removal is first ensuring accurate diagnosis. Our health providers work to rule out skin cancer and other diseases by building a detailed and thorough portrait of each patient—including medical history, gut-skin microbiome health, known symptoms, and more—as well as conducting diagnostic tests with advanced technology and cutting-edge tools. Skin lesion biopsies can help to identify the nature of the cells in a targeted growth, and the ultimate path forward will be determined by an accurate and complete diagnosis.

Another crucial element in identifying lesions appropriate for benign growth removal is a full body digital skin exam, which can help to spot suspicious moles and other growths, as well as a range of diseases and conditions. Routine check-ups are critical for building a map of skin growths, as well as noting changes over time.
