We are aware of following, as far as skin whitening treatments are concerned:
Chemical peel (Rs. 1,800-5,500): An exfoliating solution consisting of alpha-hydroxy acid will be applied to your skin, it will work on the upper damaged layers and combat melanin pigment within. This concentration strength will come in 3 options, such as light, medium or deep, and work effectively on blemishes, dark spots and uneven skin tone.
Laser (Rs. 4,000-30,000): This technique will use an intense light to minimize melanin within your skin by breaking pigments down. Thus causing your skin to become brighter than before, it will remove tanning and dark spots.
Injections (Rs. 6,000-40,000): can detoxify the body, while they protect your skin from harmful UV rays and enhance its tone, they will also have a dosage of glutathione contained within them, which can be unsafe and have severe side effects too.
Skin lightening products (Rs. 200-20,000): By this we mean a wide range of creams that have bleaching properties. These won't deliver long lasting results but will give some results with regular application.

For mole removal, there are 2 surgeries:
Surgical excision: entire mole is cut out and the skin is stitched closed if necessary.
Surgical shave: mole is removed with the help of a surgical blade to remove.
In both cases, your mole will be examined under a microscope. If cancer cells are found, your dermatologist will let you know.

You are required to approach a dermatologist to avail above treatments, you can refer from our list of Dermatologists in India, to get more information. A doctor will know better how many number of sessions to conduct, same will possibly depend on skin issues, severity of concern and type of treatment you will be deemed fit for.
