Lesion Removal

Description

Lesion removal at Skin Cam is used for skin tags, benign moles, seborrheic keratoses and other raised or pigmented spots. Using a controlled electrical arc, it sublimates the lesion in a precise, targeted way.

Best suited for

• Skin tags
• Cherry Angiomas
• Seborrheic keratoses
• Benign skin growths

Pre-care

• Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, or active tanning products for at least 2 weeks prior.
• Do not use active skincare (Vitamin A/Retinol, AHA’s, BHA’s, Benzoyl Peroxide) for 5–7 days before treatment.
• If prone to cold sores, take antiviral medication (as prescribed) prior to treatment to reduce the risk of an outbreak.
• Arrive with clean skin – no makeup, SPF, or moisturiser on the treatment area.
• Inform your clinician of any recent treatments, medications, or changes to your health.

Post-care

• Tiny crusts will form at the treatment site – do not pick or scratch as this may lead to scarring or pigmentation.
• Keep the area clean and dry for the first 24 hours.
• After 24 hours, cleanse gently with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser.
• Apply the recommended healing cream/aftercare balm as directed by your clinician.
• Avoid direct sun exposure and wear a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ daily to prevent pigmentation.
• Avoid swimming, saunas, excessive sweating, and hot showers until crusts naturally fall off (typically 5–10 days).
• No active skincare (Vitamin A, C, AHAs, BHAs, scrubs, or peels) until the area is fully healed.
• Healing may take 7–14 days, with final results visible as the skin continues to remodel.
