Scarless mole removal

RF skin excision, also known as radiofrequency skin excision, is a medical procedure used to remove unwanted and raised skin lesions, such as moles and skin tags, using radiofrequency energy.

During an RF skin excision procedure, a specialized device is used to deliver radiofrequency energy to the targeted area of the skin. The energy heats the skin tissue, causing it to vaporize or coagulate. As a result, the unwanted or abnormal skin tissue is removed or destroyed.

RF skin excision can be used for various purposes:

Removal of benign skin lesions: RF energy can be employed to remove benign skin growths like moles and skin tags. The heat generated by the radiofrequency device effectively ablates or vaporizes the lesion, allowing for precise removal.

Treatment of certain skin conditions: RF skin excision may also be utilized to treat specific dermatological conditions such as seborrheic keratoses (non-cancerous skin growths). The targeted application of radiofrequency energy helps eliminate or reduce these abnormal skin areas.

For smaller skin lesions or isolated areas, a single session may be sufficient to remove or treat the target tissue effectively. In these cases, the procedure can often be completed in a relatively short period.

For larger treatment areas or more extensive skin concerns, multiple sessions may be necessary. The sessions are typically spaced apart to allow for adequate healing and recovery between treatments. The exact number of sessions required will be determined by our doctors during your consultation.

Aftercare following RF skin excision is crucial to ensure proper healing and minimize the risk of complications.

Keep the area clean

Apply prescribed ointments or dressings

Protect the treated area

Avoid picking or scratching

Follow activity restrictions

Monitor for signs of infection

Follow-up appointments

The duration of downtime can vary from a few days to a couple of weeks. During this time, you may need to avoid activities that could disrupt the healing process, such as intense physical exercise, exposure to excessive heat or moisture, or applying makeup to the treated area.
