FAQs For Lesion Removal

Medical electrolysis is a safe and established procedure. While improvements can be noticeable promptly, the full healing process varies. The duration and number of treatments required depend on the nature, size, and type of the diagnosed lesion. Your qualified practitioner will discuss a personalised treatment plan, including expected timelines, during your medical consultation.

Your qualified practitioner will create a personalised treatment plan based on your diagnosis. This plan will detail the appropriate techniques and treatment intervals required to achieve the desired clinical outcome for your specific condition.

Treatment for telangiectasias (thread veins) involves introducing a fine probe along the vessel. High-frequency energy is then applied to coagulate and occlude the targeted capillary. The vessel typically diminishes in appearance during or shortly after treatment. The number of sessions required will depend on the extent and nature of the vascular lesion, as determined during your medical assessment.

The aim is for permanent resolution of the treated lesion. However, new lesions may develop over time depending on underlying predispositions or conditions. Your qualified practitioner will discuss this during your medical consultation.

 
 

The specific electrolysis technique employed is determined by the qualified practitioner based on a comprehensive assessment of the diagnosed lesion(s), skin condition, patient factors, and available medical equipment.
