Growths

There are numerous benign growths that can occur on the face and body. These growths can be removed by laser treatments or surgery. A consultation can confirm which technique to use.

WHAT PEAU CAN DO FOR GROWTHS

Erbium Laser for Growths

An Erbium laser is very precise at taking off the layers of the skin required to remove a growth. As the technology is very gentle, it is used on any part of the body, including the face.

Benefits of the Erbium laser treatment:

• Precision of the laser
• Minimal scarring
• Minimal downtime
• Improved therapeutic results
• Reduced risk of infection

The treatment is tailor-made to the specific characteristics of the growth to be treated. The depth of the treatment is precisely measured in microns of tissue. The procedure is extremely repeatable and uniform thus allowing for following treatments to be performed in the exact same manner.

Surgical Removal

In some cases, surgical removal with or without stitches may be more appropriate. The two basic techniques used are the shave technique and the full excision method.

During a consultation, Dr. Khanna will examine the growth to be removed and explain the recommended procedure.
