Seborrhoeic Keratosis (basal cell papilloma) are benign fibrous growths which present as a raised mass of keratinised tissue on the body and facial areas. They start as light brown flat areas which are round to oval and of varying sizes. They often have ‘stuck on’ appearance.
They are usually asymptomatic but can become irritated and inflamed spontaneously or because of friction from clothing.
Fortunately, there are several treatment options available to help remove keratosis and restore fresh skin. Among these treatments, laser removal has emerged as a popular choice due to its remarkable efficiency and precision.
You may have a keratosis in an area that is causing discomfort or embarrassment. You can treat keratosis if they bother you, keep coming back, are painful and of course very unsightly.
The most effective treatment for Keratosis is a Laser treatment, as it offers a fast and effective solution with minimal downtime.
Laser treatments present an exciting advancement in aesthetic therapy.
Laser Keratosis removal can be used for a range of reasons.
Laser removal is perfect for anyone looking for an efficient, less invasive method to eliminate keratosis.
The equipment required for removal of these blemishes is a short wave diathermy unit. The unit uses an alternating, high frequency current to treat the blemish by thermolysis.
Keratoses are removed by probing into the superficial strata of the skin of a small one effectively cauterising it’s blood supply.
Our medical specialist will start at a low level of current whilst gauging the effect on your blemish and on surrounding skin. It may be necessary to slowly raise the level to achieve optimum results. We will then scrape away the tissue of the keratosis using sterilised tweezers.
Once the keratosis has been treated, we will check that no further cauterisation of the wound area is necessary and then apply a calming solution. The area will be noticeably red after treatment.
Most keratoses, once removed and the site healed over, will leave virtually no sign of their original presence on the skin’s surface. Occasionally they leave a small area of slight discolouration or tiny scar. With due care by the client, both should fade with time but there is no guarantee. Treated blemishes will not return however in some cases new ones may form in the area depending on the underlying cause.
Keratosis Laser Removal can be used by all individuals and is a very common treatment due to its versatility and long-term results.
