What Is Radio Frequency Mole Removal?
This approach uses controlled radio frequency energy to remove a skin lesion. The technique helps reduce the impact on surrounding skin. A consultation and assessment are carried out first to determine whether this approach is suitable for you.
Book a Consultation
If you are considering mole removal, you can book a consultation with Dr Scott Horsburgh. This appointment will give you the opportunity to discuss your concerns, assessment, and the methods that may be suitable for you.
What Can Be Addressed?
Radio frequency mole removal may be considered for:
- Benign moles (non-cancerous growths of skin cells)
- Cherry angiomas (small, red spots made up of blood vessels)
- Skin tags (soft, small pieces of skin)
- Seborrheic keratosis (harmless, often brown growths on the skin’s surface)
- Warts (small, rough growths on the skin caused by a virus)
The suitability for removal will depend on the type and location of the lesion, as well as your health and skin condition.
Treatment Approach
Dr Scott Horsburgh will first conduct an assessment to confirm whether the lesion is benign (non-cancerous) and suitable for radio frequency mole removal. If it is suitable, the RF device is used to remove the lesion in layers, without the need for stitches. Patients are provided with options to support comfort during the procedure. The process generally takes less than 30 minutes for a single lesion, depending on factors such as the size, location, and number of lesions being treated.
