Precautions after Mole Removal

General Guidelines (First Week After Procedure)

Please avoid the following for one week after your procedure:

• Alcohol consumption
• Smoking
• Sauna or extreme heat exposure
• Meridian massage
• Excessive facial expressions
• Intense physical exercise
• Skin exfoliation

Pain, bruising, and swelling will gradually improve with time and usually subside within 3–10 days. If symptoms worsen or become concerning, please contact the clinic immediately.

Mole Removal

• DuoDERM (Regenerative Tape) should not be changed too frequently. Leave it in place until new skin fully regenerates.
• Replace the tape only if the exudate is leaking. Generally, changing it every 2–3 days is sufficient.
• Complete regeneration typically takes 2–3 weeks, but may vary per individual.
• If redness or incomplete healing remains, continue using the tape to prevent pigmentation or scarring.
• After removing the DuoDERM, apply sunscreen diligently. Continue tape use if redness persists.

How to Replace DuoDERM:

1. Cut the tape slightly larger than the wound.
2. Apply and press gently for 5 seconds with your palm.
3. You may wash your face and apply makeup while the tape is on — just ensure the area stays clean and dry.

Post-Healing Care

• Once the wound is fully healed, focus on skin regeneration and moisturizing care.
• Continued sun protection is essential to prevent pigmentation.
