Skin Tag & Raised Lesion Removal
Benign skin lesions refer to non-cancerous growths or abnormalities on the skin's surface. These lesions can include moles, skin tags, seborrheic keratoses, and other similar conditions. While these lesions are typically harmless, they can sometimes cause cosmetic concerns or discomfort. At our Medspa, we offer safe and effective treatments to address and remove these benign skin lesions, helping you achieve a smoother, more even complexion.
During a benign skin lesion treatment, our experienced practitioners will carefully assess the type, size, and location of the lesion. We utilize various techniques such as cryotherapy (freezing), electrocautery (burning), or surgical excision to remove the lesion. These methods are performed with precision and are tailored to the specific characteristics of the lesion. The treatment is typically quick, and in most cases, discomfort is minimal and well-tolerated. Our practitioners prioritize your comfort and safety, ensuring a gentle and efficient procedure.
Following the treatment, you can expect some mild redness, swelling, or scabbing in the treated area, which is a normal part of the healing process. It is crucial to follow the aftercare instructions provided by our practitioners to promote proper healing and minimize the risk of infection. In most cases, the recovery period is relatively short, and any temporary side effects subside within a few days to weeks. With our expert care and attention, you can anticipate a smoother, more uniform skin appearance as the healing progresses, enhancing your overall aesthetic and confidence.
