Benign Lesion Removals

Bumps, blemishes, moles and skin tags are natural. However, their presence can sometimes be distressing or inconvenient, which is why Benign Lesion Removal is a popular treatment.

Benign lesions are removed in a variety of ways, depending upon the type of skin lesion that is being addressed. For example, sometimes a benign lesion needs to be excised or cut out, other times it may require a biopsy or scraping and shaving. Electrocautery is also a common approach, in which heat from an electric current is used to destroy abnormal tissue. Similarly, liquid nitrogen, skin grafts or flaps might be required.

Integra SkinLab provides an in-depth consultation to accurately understand and assess your specific lesion. Our team will then prescribe a customized course of action to help you get the best results.
