Virginia Oral, Facial & Implant Surgery offers non-invasive treatment for patients who have unwanted facial moles. Our laser mole removal process typically takes less than an hour and provides predictable, cosmetically appealing results.

While some practices have nurses or technicians conduct these types of treatments, our cosmetic surgeons perform all med spa procedures for our patients.

As members of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery and Board-Certified Oral and Maxillofacial surgeons, we bring a high degree of experience and skill to their care.

Our surgeons’ extensive knowledge of facial anatomy and aesthetics is reflected in his effective treatment and attractive outcomes. We are able to remove different types of moles using state-of-the-art laser devices.

Why Laser Mole Removal?

Laser mole removal is a quick and effective way to eliminate a mole from the surface of a person’s face without noticeable scarring. Patients do not require sedation during their treatment, and recovery from the procedure is very manageable.

Our practice uses a Syneron fractional CO2 laser, a safe and effective technology employed by doctors in a variety of medical and aesthetic treatments. The targeted beams of energy that the machine emits efface the mole, removing it from the surface of the face.

Laser mole removal provides several advantages over alternatives:

The technique can be very effective in getting rid of moles for cosmetic purposes. It gives Dr. Gocke a high degree of control over where the energy is applied.

Treatment with the laser device is more intensive than with other technologies. This means that patients typically require fewer applications.

Laser mole removal tends to be faster than other approaches since patients don’t usually need multiple sessions. The first treatment should eliminate nearly all visible signs of the mole.

Our staff can explain the technology and its benefits during your consultation. Your safety, comfort, and confidence in your treatment are our highest priorities.

What Our Patients Say

“I felt welcomed and valued from the second I walked in the door to the moment I left. Every person I interacted with- from the front desk staff, to the surgical assistants, and even the doctor himself- was kind, informative, and helpful. I had my wisdom teeth removed on Friday and was back to work with only a mild and easily manageable headache on Monday. They gave clear instructions on how to prevent infection and dry socket, and even called to check up on me the day of and week after my procedure! I strongly recommend this office to anyone who is searching for the services they offer.

“Everyone was super nice, friendly, and courteous. The office is clean and modern. Everyone was professional and seemed pretty organized. I got to watch Netflix laying down while I waited as well. The staff was nice enough to even switch it to a show I recommended!! Also, there are snacks and drinks available for your drivers waiting on you. As someone who is wary of going to the dentist, it was a great experience and I’d recommend this place! Cute valentines day decorations when I was there too!”
