Excision of Single Facial Skin Lesion: Precision in a High-Visibility Area


Facial lesions often require careful excision to minimise scarring and preserve function, even when lesions are benign.
What It Costs
MOH-aligned private fees typically include:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 500 – 1,300
• Anaesthetist: Not typically required
What’s Typically Covered
Coverage may apply when:
• Lesion is suspicious, bleeding, or symptomatic
• Cosmetic intent is excluded
Insurance Tip
Facial location alone does not guarantee coverage medical necessity must be explicit.
Conclusion
On the face, even small procedures demand surgical expertise and clear justification.
