At The Doctors Practice in Birmingham, Dr Bik and Dr Rinku provide expert minor surgery services for the safe, precise removal of skin lesions, moles, skin tags, cysts, warts, keratoses and scars.
Minor surgical procedures are minimally invasive treatments designed to address a range of skin concerns, including skin tag removal, mole removal, and the treatment of warts and other skin lesions. At our Birmingham clinic, these procedures are performed by experienced doctors using local anaesthesia to ensure patient comfort and safety.
Our approach focuses on reducing recovery time and minimising scarring, so patients can return to their daily activities quickly.
With over 20 years of experience in minor surgical procedures, our doctors deliver effective, minimally invasive treatments to help you achieve clear, healthy skin. Choosing a private clinic offers benefits such as faster access to appointments and the option for cosmetic procedures not typically available on the NHS.
Our doctor will assess your lesion, review your medical history, and examine the area of concern to determine the most suitable treatment options. Proper pre-operative assessment includes health screening and medication management to ensure your safety. This is your opportunity to ask questions and understand what the procedure involves.
Minor surgery is performed under local anaesthesia directly at the site of the lesion in our dedicated treatment room. Before starting, your doctor will explain the procedure in detail, including any potential risks, so you are fully informed and comfortable. Most procedures take between 15 and 45 minutes depending on the size and location of the lesion. You’ll remain comfortable throughout, as minor surgeries in Birmingham are typically performed under local anaesthesia to ensure minimal discomfort and quick recovery times, and our doctors will explain each step as they proceed.
Before you leave, you’ll receive personalised aftercare instructions covering wound care, activity restrictions, and signs to watch for. We schedule follow-up appointments to check your healing, remove any sutures, and discuss histology results where applicable.
Our Birmingham clinic is equipped with advanced facilities to ensure the highest levels of patient safety and comfort. We maintain a dedicated treatment room that meets hospital-grade standards, and our clinic is fully registered with the CQC. All equipment is regularly updated to incorporate the latest technology and techniques, providing patients with the safest and most effective care possible.

Is Minor Surgery Safe?
All procedures are carried out in a controlled, clinical environment by experienced doctors.
Local anaesthetic numbs the treatment area completely, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. You may feel slight pressure or tugging. Any post-procedure discomfort is typically mild and managed with over-the-counter painkillers.
Most patients return to normal activities the same day or within 24-48 hours. Healing time varies depending on the procedure – small excisions may heal within a week, while larger removals can take two to three weeks.
Our doctors use careful surgical techniques to minimise scarring. Some scarring is inevitable with any incision, but scars typically fade significantly over 6–12 months. We’ll advise on scar care to optimise your results.
No referral is required. You can book directly with us for a consultation and treatment.
