Brief Answer:
Molluscum contagiosum, get them removed

Detailed Answer:
I have reviewed the attached photographs and these are the lesions of molluscum contagiosum.
It is a sexually transmitted viral infection.
I would recommend you to consult a dermatologist and get them removed by needle extirpation or radio frequency ablation.
These are minor office procedures requiring 20-25 minutes.

Brief Answer:
You can remove it through laser

Detailed Answer:
Yes you can remove them through laser also.
It is a viral infection.So there are chances of it to recur.
But removal is very essential as it has a tendency to speak further.
Cost of the procedure varies depending on the clinic and location of the country.
