Cosmetic skin surgery

Cosmetic mole and skin lesion removal in London as a minor outpatient procedure under local anaesthesia, with minimal downtime. Mr Theodore Nanidis also treats cysts and benign deep-skin lesions.

Cosmetic mole and skin lesion removal is performed as a minor outpatient procedure under local anaesthesia, with minimal downtime and no overnight stay required. Mr Theodore Nanidis uses meticulous surgical technique to excise moles, cysts, lipomas and other benign skin lesions while minimising scarring — ensuring both a safe, effective result and the best possible cosmetic outcome.

Mr Nanidis also treats deeper benign lesions including epidermoid cysts and sebaceous cysts, which are removed in their entirety to prevent recurrence. All removed tissue is sent for histological analysis as standard, providing peace of mind alongside a refined cosmetic result.

Procedures are performed at King Edward VII's Hospital in London and at clinics across Surrey. A thorough consultation is carried out prior to any procedure to assess the lesion, discuss the technique and ensure the most appropriate treatment plan is in place.
