What is Lesion Removal?

Lesion removal eliminates unwanted pigmented areas such as birthmarks, freckles, and age spots. It often uses the advanced VersaPulse® laser for precision and effectiveness. This technology also targets unwanted pigmentation like warts, moles, and skin tags. Dr. Copeland and Dr. Copeland-Halperin may also use other techniques to address these concerns.

What Are the Benefits of Lesion Removal?

By removing moles, warts, skin tags, or pigmented spots like birthmarks and age spots, lesion removal can smooth skin texture, even out skin tone, and reduce potential skin friction areas. Beyond the visible improvements, it can also provide peace of mind by eliminating lesions that might change or cause concern.

Who Are the Best Candidates for Lesion Removal?

The best candidates for lesion removal are individuals who have growths on their skin that they want to address for cosmetic, medical, or comfort reasons. This includes people with:

  • Pigmented lesions like birthmarks, age spots, or freckles
  • Skin tags and warts
  • Moles
  • Discomfort or friction caused by lesions in areas where they rub against clothing or skin.

Before proceeding, candidates must consult with a qualified professional, such as Dr. Copeland or Dr. Copeland-Halperin, to ensure the removal process is safe and appropriate for their specific condition.

What to Expect on the Day of Lesion Removal Treatment

Once the area to be treated is numbed, the most suitable technique for removing the lesion will be chosen based on its type and location. If the lesion is pigmented, such as a birthmark or age spot, Dr. Copeland or Dr. Copeland-Halperin may use the VersaPulse® laser to precisely target the pigment, effectively breaking it down without damaging the surrounding skin. For other lesions like warts, moles, or skin tags, they might opt for excision, which involves carefully cutting away the lesion with a surgical instrument.

The entire process is quick, often completed within a matter of minutes.

Your guide to post-lesion removal care

Lesion Removal Recovery

After the procedure, you may experience some redness and swelling, which is normal.
Follow your post-treatment instructions, which will tell you to keep the area clean and avoid direct sunlight. If stitches were used, they’ll need to be removed within a week. Most people can return to their usual activities shortly after, but avoiding strenuous exercise for a few days is best.

The area will heal over the next few weeks, and any redness will fade. Full recovery can take a few weeks to a couple of months, depending on the lesion’s size and depth. A post-procedure skin care regimen based on your individual needs will be recommended using Dr. Michelle Copeland Skin Care to help promote healing and even skin tone.
