The laser treats the lesion by carefully removing (vaporising) the affected skin.
The most suitable method is always determined during a consultation with a dermatologist.

effective for many benign lesions,
allows for depth control,
additionally stimulates skin regeneration around the treated area.

Erbium:YAG laser

very high precision,
reduced thermal impact on surrounding tissue,
particularly useful for conditions requiring a more delicate approach.

Often, the lesion can be completely removed during a single session.

When to consider this treatment?

The treatment could be considered in the cases of:

warts,
fibromas,
sebaceous cysts,
xanthelasmas,
corns,
