Treatment & Technology
Skin lesion removal encompasses various procedures designed to eliminate abnormal or unwanted growths on the skin’s surface. These procedures often include methods such as laser mole removal, excision, and minimally invasive surgical biopsies. Each technique serves the purpose of selectively removing different types of lesions, addressing concerns like moles, warts, skin tags, or other irregularities. The choice of procedure depends on factors such as the size, type, and location of the lesion, aiming to effectively extract or treat the affected area while minimizing scarring or damage to the surrounding skin.

What to Expect
At a Glance

Our experts will discuss the type, size, and location of the benign lesions like age spots, skin tags, and warts. We will evaluate whether laser treatment is the most appropriate option for you or if other methods (e.g., cryotherapy, salicylic acid) might be better suited. We may ask about any medical conditions or medications you take, as certain health conditions may impact laser treatment outcomes.

We capture photos for your patient profile to track progress over time and monitor your skin’s improvement after each treatment.

After applying a topical anesthetic to numb the area, the laser is directed at the wart to destroy the tissue and cut off the blood supply to the wart, causing it to shrink and eventually fall off.
The treatment is generally tolerable, and most people feel only mild discomfort or a slight stinging or snapping sensation during the procedure.
-
After your treatment, the area may be red, swollen, or slightly tender, similar to the sensation of a mild sunburn. This should subside within a few hours to a few days.
This method is minimally invasive with minimal recovery time. Laser therapy is effective for cosmetic purposes and for treating superficial lesions.
You'll likely be advised to avoid direct sun exposure on the treated area, moisturize regularly, and keep the area clean and dry.

The sudden appearance of skin lesions can be caused by a variety of factors, ranging from harmless conditions to more serious underlying health issues. Understanding the cause of these lesions requires considering their appearance, location, and any other symptoms you might have.

Allergic reactions: Bug bites, poison ivy, or a severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis
Medications: Side effects from certain medications, like chemotherapy or corticosteroids
Injuries: Sunburn, wounds, or rubbing from clothing or shoes

Yes, skin lesions can grow back, depending on the type of lesion, the treatment received, and whether the underlying cause was fully addressed.
Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), and they can return if the virus is still present in the skin or if the wart was not completely removed. Even if a wart is treated and goes away, the virus can remain dormant in the skin, leading to new warts over time.
Skin tags are benign growths, often caused by friction or skin folds, and they can grow back in the same location or near the area where the original tag was removed. If the base of the skin tag isn't completely removed, it may regrow.
Seborrheic keratosis is a non-cancerous skin growth that can be removed, but new seborrheic keratoses can develop elsewhere on the skin. The condition tends to be genetic, so even if one growth is removed, new ones may appear over time.
If you notice a skin lesion growing back or changing in appearance, it’s important to consult our dermatologist.
