Kannur’s Highway Junction clinic opened with the complete minor-procedure menu of the Thalassery flagship: moles, warts, corns, tags, milia, molluscum, keratoses, xanthelasma and syringomas, with skin biopsy, nail avulsion and ear-lobe repair in the same room. Every growth is checked by a dermatologist before it is touched. Our radio surgery guide explains the quickest of the methods.

Minor Procedures in Kannur, Done the Flagship Way
People put up with skin growths for years because removal sounds like surgery. For most it is a ten-minute procedure under numbing cream. The important part happens before: the dermatologist looks at every mole under a dermatoscope, because a small proportion of moles that look ordinary are not, and those are excised and sent for laboratory examination rather than burned off. The Kannur clinic has its own biopsy service for exactly that.
For benign growths the method follows the growth. Radiofrequency, a fine wire that cuts and seals in one pass, removes tags, milia, small moles and the peppery cheek bumps of dermatosis papulosa nigra with almost no bleeding and the least mark. The CO2 laser handles warts, corns, syringomas, xanthelasma and thick seborrheic keratoses in controlled layers. Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy freezes warts and keratoses without any cutting.
Warts are the one growth that may come back, because the virus survives in surrounding skin. For warts that are multiple, recurrent or on awkward sites, the Kannur clinic offers intralesional immunotherapy, a short course of injections that lets the immune system clear the virus, often including warts that were never treated. Molluscum in children is handled gently or simply watched when it is already resolving.
The same room handles nail avulsion for ingrown and painful nails, ear-lobe repair and sterile ear and nose piercing. Healing after any procedure is a small scab for five to ten days; keeping it dry, unpicked and out of the sun is the whole aftercare and the main protection against a dark mark on Kannur skin. Neck tags together with a dark velvety neck prompt a suggestion to check for insulin resistance.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions — Mole, Wart & Skin Tag Removal in Kannur
What does it cost to remove a mole, wart or tag in Kannur?
It depends on the number and type of growths and the method, with biopsy and immunotherapy priced separately. The dermatologist examines the growths and gives the cost at the consultation, before anything is done.
Is a biopsy painful?
No. It is done under a small local anaesthetic injection, takes a few minutes, and the site is closed with a fine suture or left to heal under a dressing. Results take about a week.
Can the dark bumps on my cheeks be removed?
Yes. Dermatosis papulosa nigra, the small dark bumps common on darker skin, is removed with radiofrequency at very low energy so the cheeks heal without marks. Many bumps can be cleared in one visit.
How many sessions do warts need?
Most clear in one to three laser or cryotherapy sessions. Warts that return or are widespread are offered immunotherapy, a course of injections over several visits that treats the virus itself.
Do you repair torn ear lobes and treat ingrown nails?
Yes, both are done in the procedure room under local anaesthetic as short day visits, with re-piercing possible once a repaired lobe has healed.
