Skin Tag Treatments

Before beginning the CO2 laser mole-removal procedure, we will administer a light anesthetic to the area. This will numb the region to any pain, keeping you comfortable during the procedure. During a consultation at Sudbury Med Spa, we will discuss your anesthesia options and decide on the one that’s most favorable for you.

After the area has been numbed, we will then activate the CO2 laser and focus it on the mole. The laser energy will evaporate the tissue of the mole in a way that is precise and safe.

Once the procedure has been completed, you might notice that there is a darkening of the skin around the region that was being treated. This is a possible side effect and will resolve itself quickly.

Keep good care of the site of the procedure for around six weeks. Make sure you don’t go out in direct sunlight, as this can affect the skin of the area.

The risk of post-treatment marks in the region are virtually negligible at just 1%, which is far more favorable than if you go a different route, such as surgical intervention or cauterization.

There are many advantages to this treatment method. Perhaps the greatest advantage among them all is the fact that this is a very low-risk procedure. There is no risk of infection after the procedure, and you will be able to obtain results that are permanent.

The technology of the CO2 laser allows it to target even the deepest moles, including the ones that aren’t easy to reach using other treatments. The number of sessions depends entirely upon how many moles you want removed and their sizes.
