Joseph Niamtu III, DMD

I am so thankful I found Dr Niamtu online. I was searching for a doctor who specialized in mole removal and saw Dr Niamtu uses a special method using radiowave frequency rather than cutting moles.
The back story. I had a raised, skin-​colored mole directly between my eyes. It wasn’t incredibly noticeable, but people always thought I had a zit. For years I wanted to have it removed but was too scared. I visited at least three plastic surgeons and one dermatologist where I live in DC to get a consultation on the removal. All of them said not to do it because they’d have to cut and it would leave a scar between my eyes– no thanks!!! So when I found Dr Niamtu uses a different method online, and since I live in DC and they’re in Richmond I emailed photos of my mole to the team and they were extremely responsive. The doctor himself even emailed me back after looking at the photos I sent.
So, off I went to Richmond for the day. I was nervous because, hello, this is my face! Right between my eyes! But the doctors and staff put me immediately at ease. They numbed my mole and used their special radiowave machine to eliminate it. I was in and out quickly and essentially painlessly, other than the numbing pinprick. For about a month after, it was very red where the mole once was. This month of having the red mark was worth EVERY minute — I now have no mole whatsoever, no mark, no scar, nothing. It looks as if the imperfection was never there. I can’t begin to express how thankful I am, it really helped my confidence and am so glad I trusted the doctor here with my face. If I ever needed anything else done I would drive down again from DC without a question.
My procedure was done in February 2015.

I found Dr. Niamtu online because of his world class reputation for removal of moles/​«beauty marks» with minimal scarring. The results in many patients have yielded virtually no scars!
I haven’t gone in for any procedures, but I’ve emailed dr. Niamtu about radiowave surgery for the removal of moles. He’s very courteous and responsive and I’m really hoping to schedule with him soon since he is one of the best for this type of thing. Most dermatologists will leave a scar from removal of a mole and that goes for even plastic surgeons! In addition to the decreased chance of scarring in mole removal, he also can remove hundreds of moles in one procedure (under sedation) or 5 or less without sedation. It’s also a lot less expensive his way than the traditional cut or shave off methods when out of pocket. And if its for cosmetic reasons, it’s always out of pocket. One mole removed from his office is about $ 150-​$ 350, but on average, in a dermatologist’s office with other methods, it can range from $ 450 and up. He also does biopsy moles if they look suspicious or if you want it done. So it’s not any riskier than any other method. It just has a prettier end result.
I have to add that his assistant, Ginger is usually really friendly but sometimes she can be rather curt and unpleasant… Don’t let her get to you! She has an overwhelming job working for Dr. Niamtu since he’s so busy and in high demand.
