When is skin lesion removal necessary?


At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts, we understand the importance of maintaining optimal skin health, and we know that sometimes this involves skin lesion removal. We are proficient in performing this procedure for a variety of reasons.
 
Medical Reasons:

● Cancerous or Potentially Cancerous Lesions: Our skilled team is experienced in identifying and treating skin lesions that are cancerous or have the potential to become cancerous. We prioritize early detection and removal of these lesions to prevent the possibility of them spreading further.

● Risk of Infection: If your skin lesion is infected or poses a risk of becoming infected, our team at Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts can safely remove it to prevent any further complications.

Cosmetic Concerns:

Our practice is rooted in aesthetics and we understand that sometimes, skin lesion removal is desired for cosmetic reasons:

● Visible Lesions: If a skin lesion on your face or hands is causing you distress, we can help. Our team is experienced in removing these lesions, leaving you with a clearer, more confident complexion.

● Disfiguring or Unwanted Pigmentation Lesions: We understand that certain lesions, such as age spots or sunspots, can have a significant impact on your appearance and confidence.

Other Considerations:

● Physical Discomfort: If a skin lesion is causing physical discomfort, such as pain or itching, our team can alleviate your discomfort by removing the lesion.

● Practicality and Risk Assessment: We take into account the size, location, and overall health when deciding if a lesion needs to be removed. If a lesion is interfering with your daily activities, we can help.

At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts, we emphasize the importance of consulting with a qualified healthcare provider if you have concerns about a skin lesion.

What types of lesions can be removed?


At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts, we understand that lesions can be a cause of concern, both medically and aesthetically. Our skilled team is experienced in the management and removal of a wide variety of lesion types.
 
Common types of benign skin lesions such as moles, skin tags, seborrheic keratoses, and warts can be effectively removed. These non-cancerous growths can be removed for their cosmetic impact or if they cause irritation or discomfort.

Cysts, lipomas, fibromas, keloids, and hemangiomas can also be addressed. We offer a range of minimally invasive procedures or surgeries to alleviate any discomfort caused by such conditions and improve your overall skin health and appearance.

Skin cancer is a serious condition that needs immediate attention. At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts, we provide treatment for cancerous skin lesions such as basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. Through surgical removal, radiation therapy, or topical treatments, we work to effectively eliminate these threats to your health. The removal method for each type of lesion is carefully chosen based on its size, location, and the patient’s overall health.

How do I prepare for skin lesion removal?


At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts, we understand that any medical procedure can be daunting, especially when it involves your skin. That’s why we provide comprehensive care and support for all our patients undergoing skin lesion removal. Our team of experts is here to ensure a successful procedure and recovery.
 
Medical History and Consultation:

Your journey with us starts long before the procedure. We encourage an open dialogue about your medical history, any allergies, or medications you may be taking. This helps us to tailor your care to your individual needs, taking into account any unique factors that might affect your procedure and recovery. We also conduct a careful examination of the lesion to determine the best removal technique.

Before the Procedure:
Our team provides clear instructions on how to prepare for your procedure. This includes guidance on fasting, discontinuing certain medications, and how to cleanse the area around the lesion. We also advise against consuming alcohol and smoking, as these can affect the healing process.

Day of Procedure:
We value your time and appreciate your punctuality. Dress comfortably and remember to remove any facial jewelry if the lesion is on your face. You will be in a relaxed environment, and our team will be ready to provide the best care.

After the Procedure:
Post-procedure care is crucial for optimal healing. Our team will provide detailed instructions on wound care and advise on any necessary pain medication. We recommend avoiding strenuous activities that could put pressure on the wound.

Follow-Up Care:
We schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing process. These are typically 1-2 weeks post-procedure, especially if stitches were used. We advise you to protect the treated area from sunlight and will provide any necessary care or advice.

Remember, skin lesion removal is a common procedure with generally good outcomes. The team at Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts is dedicated to ensuring your comfort and promoting optimal healing.

Can multiple lesions be removed in one appointment?


At Aesthetic Eye & Surgical Arts, we understand that our patients may have multiple lesions that require removal. Whether these are on the face and eyelids (a common area due to sun exposure), or other areas of the body, we are often asked if multiple lesions can be removed in one appointment.
 
The feasibility of removing multiple lesions in one appointment depends on several variables such as the size, location, and type of the lesions, the patient’s overall health, the removal method, and our surgeon’s expertise.

Key factors that we consider include:

● Number and size of lesions: Our expertise in ophthalmic plastic surgery allows us to accurately assess whether a small number of small lesions can be removed in one session, or if larger or numerous lesions necessitate separate appointments.

● Location of lesions: Lesions on the eyelids or face, which are in our area of expertise, that are located in close proximity to each other may be more easily removed together.

● Patient’s health: A thorough examination of the patient’s overall health and tolerance for the procedure is a crucial part of our process.

● Type of lesion: We have experience in removing a variety of lesions, from skin tags to warts, and will advise on whether these can be removed in one session or require multiple treatments.

In general, we advise removing multiple small, easily treatable lesions in one session if possible. However, for larger, more complex lesions or when the patient has multiple health concerns, scheduling separate appointments may be more appropriate. Trust us to provide the best possible care and recommendations for your individual circumstances. For more information, contact us or schedule an appointment online.
