Laser removal of skin lesions
Laser skin lesion removal is a procedure dedicated to patients with lesions that do not require histopathological examination. Two laser technologies are most commonly used to remove skin lesions – the CO2 fractional laser and the Fotona SP Dynamis laser.
The CO2 fractional laser allows tissue to be vaporized in a fraction of a second and can penetrate as deep as 2 mm into the skin. Since the altered tissue is surrounded by healthy cells, the repair and regeneration process happens quickly when using this technology. The Fotona SP Dynamis laser, on the other hand, can remove small skin lesions such as fibroids, warts and warts.
Laser removal of skin lesions – what is it?
Regardless of which of the previously described technologies is used for laser removal of the skin lesion, the course of the procedure is similar. The doctor cleanses the skin in the treatment area and sets the appropriate technical parameters of the equipment, which are tailored to the indications established during the previous medical consultation. The depth and intensity of the treatment are regulated by the doctor depending on the patient’s skin reaction.
Laser removal of skin lesions – for whom?
Indications for laser removal of skin lesions are all lesions that do not require histopathological examination. They are:
- warts
- viral and seborrheic warts
- some pigmented lesions
- fibromas
- milia
- Yellow tufts
- Ruby points
Recommendations before the procedure
The laser removal of skin lesions does not require any special preparation. If the lesion is located on a hairy area (e.g. on the scalp), the hair in this area should be shaved with a disposable razor before the appointment.
Recommendations after the procedure
For a few days after the procedure, do not use soap, alcohol or alcohol-based tonics, or perform peelings or other treatments in the treatment area. Do not wipe the treatment area with a sponge or towel or irritate the skin in this area. One of the most important post-treatment recommendations is to avoid exposing the treatment site to the sun.
