Mole & Skin Tag Removal
Unsightly moles and skin tags can be a source of frustration for many people. White Rock Skin & Laser Clinic's physicians are happy to remove unwanted, benign skin lesions using the Pellevé radio-frequency surgical tool. This technology for medical procedures has been around since the 1940's. It works by simultaneously cutting and coagulating tissues without applying any pressure or crushing the tissue, for less bleeding and faster healing. Due to the fact that this tool utilizes radio-frequency, no heat is applied to the skin so less chance of thermal damage or injury.
Following a consultation with our physicians, local or topical anesthetic is applied to ensure a comfortable treatment. The physician will then choose the appropriate electrode tip and vaporize the tissue of the lesion layer by layer all the way down to the top layer of the skin, safely and effectively removing it from the skin.The accuracy of the treatment and extensive degree of control that this tool provides, lessens the risk of scarring greatly.
There is no downtime to the procedure however after-care instructions are given to reduce the risk of infection and discoloration. Medical-grade skin care may be recommended to ensure better results.
