Skin Lesion Removal In Dubai

A Skin Lesion is an area of the skin that is usually different from the surrounding skin. This difference can be in the form of warts, moles, skin tags, melanoma, or Spitz lesion. These lesions can be both shallow and skin deep and can even be cancerous. Generally, the skin lesions are benign and painless but they look unsightly. Therefore, Skin Lesion Removal in Dubai has become such a popular treatment.

Skin Lesion Techniques

A typical Skin Lesion Removal treatment in Dubai is usually done at a surgeon’s clinic, and the procedure doesn’t involve many complexities. It is a fairly quick procedure that doesn’t require a night stay at the hospital, and most patients can return to their routine activities within a day or two. The type of technique used depends on the type, size, and location of the skin lesion.

Usually, the skin lesion removal treatment is carried out through one of the following techniques:

Shave Excision – This technique is used for lesions that rise above the skin. A surgeon typically uses a small blade to remove the outermost layers of the skin until the lesion is obliterated. Usually, the procedure doesn’t require any stitches, and only medicine is applied on top of the wound to prevent any bleeding.

Scissor Excision – It works much like shave excision. However, the surgeon uses a pair of scissors to remove the lesion instead of shaving. He will cut the lesion at the base by grabbing it with forceps and slightly pulling it up. Any remaining part of the lesion may be scraped off using a curette. This procedure, too, doesn’t require any stitches.

Cryotherapy (Freezing) – This technique usually lasts only a minute during which a medical professional applies a special solution (usually liquid nitrogen or argon gas) to the skin lesion, using a cotton swab. This causes ice crystals to form in the lesion, breaking up the lesion tissue cells. The treated area will then blister, and the destroyed lesion will peel away.

Laser Treatment – Works by directing a laser beam onto the skin lesion. The high-frequency laser beam heats the cells in the lesion until they burst. The lesion then disappears at the end of the procedure. However, you’ll need two to three treatment sessions to get rid of the lesion completely.

Kenakort Injection – It is also an effective non-surgical treatment option for skin lesions and is injected deep into the muscles. From the muscles, kenakort injection gets absorbed into the blood slowly and is then carried to other body parts through blood.

Pre-op Preparation

During your consultation sessions, you need to inform your doctor about your medical history. You need to tell him if you have any allergies or bleeding problems and discuss the medications you’re already taking. The surgeon will then give you a list of instructions to follow before you undergo skin lesion removal in Dubai. These instructions include;

• Take all prescribed medications regularly.
• Get all required lab tests done to ensure your fitness for the treatment.
• Consume a healthy diet.
• Discontinue aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs.

Procedure

Most skin lesion treatments are quick, and the procedure doesn’t take long. You’ll be required to drop into your surgeon’s office at a convenient time, get the treatment done, and leave the same day. Before the treatment, your surgeon will identify the type of skin lesion so that an appropriate treatment plan can be adopted. The surgeon will also test the lesion for any cancerous tendency.

Usually, the treatment procedure involves the following steps;

1. Your surgeon will apply local anesthesia to numb the treatment area so that you don’t feel any pain or discomfort.
2. Depending on the type of procedure chosen, the surgeon will remove the lesion either through excision, laser, or freezing.
3. Once the lesion is removed, the surgeon will either stitch back the wound or only apply medicine to stop bleeding. Stitching, however, is rare, and most surgeons only use the medicine.
4. Bandages are then applied to help the wound heal quickly.
5. In case the lesion isn’t removed completely, additional treatment sessions may be arranged to get rid of the entire lesion.
