"The Story of Sean's Mole"
an In-Office Surgery Procedure
Sean had been living with a mole which did not exactly please him. For a long time he and his parents wished to get rid of it but were afraid doing so would be painful to Sean and costly too.
Finally, they took the courage and contacted the Elk Grove Dermatology.

The friendly professionals at Elk Grove Dermatology dispelled all their fears of pain and high cost. Sean and his parents were advised the surgery would be quick, painless and not expensive at all. So, here is Sean at the Elk Grove Dermatology for the removal procedure.

The strategy is to remove the mole without stitches. It will permit Sean to immediately resume normal activities, including sports activities.

Two hours before coming in Sean applied the topical EMLA Cream so as to soften his mole. Dr. Polisky and his staff greeted Sean and his parents. Surgical nurses explained the procedure once again. Simple written instructions were given and explained. Dr. Polisky talked about any concerns Sean and his parent still had.  If topical or oral antibiotics were needed, they were available in-house at the checkout desk.

Sean was given a stuffed toy to hold on to. A quick ouch baby shot was given. A few minutes later the removal procedure began and finished very quickly.
Sean was surprised he did not feel any pain. "Is it done already, doctor? It really is gone!".  Dr Polisky replied, "Most of my patients are surprised how quick and painless the procedure is."

On a return visit, the surgery site is checked for proper healing and, if necessary, lab reports are discussed and explained.
