Removal of skin lesions, such as papillomas, keratomas, and others, using the gold standard U.S. “CO2 Re” laser!

Advantage – The “CO2 Re” laser also has a hemostatic effect, making the removal of papillomas and keratomas a quicker and safer procedure with much faster healing.

Papillomas are benign skin or mucous membrane epithelial lesions, brownish or skin-colored, caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Typically, the number of papillomas increases with age, especially in areas of higher friction, such as the neck, armpits, breast region, and groin.

Keratoma is a tumor formed from keratinized epithelium. There are several types of keratomas:

  • Seborrheic;
  • Fibrokeratoma;
  • Actinic;
  • Follicular keratoma.

The causes of keratomas vary and include heredity, weather changes (sun, wind), and isolated keratinization appearing on the face.

Xanthelasma is a yellowish, soft skin lesion found on the eyelids, representing a fat deposit. It usually occurs due to elevated cholesterol levels. If such lesions appear, it is necessary to check blood cholesterol and its fractions. These skin lesions are safely removed with a laser in our clinics.

All these lesions are effectively and safely removed using the U.S. “Candela Medical” CO2 Re laser. Globally, this laser is the only one awarded the gold standard rating, signifying the most effective technology for these procedures. These are fast, comfortable, and safe procedures.

How is the removal of papillomas, keratomas, and other skin lesions performed?

The procedure begins with a thorough consultation with a dermatologist/surgeon/oncologist to examine and assess the skin lesion. Preparation follows, and then laser removal of the skin lesion(s) is performed. The laser beam destroys papillomas, keratomas, xanthelasmas, and other skin lesions.

How does the U.S. CO2 Re laser work in skin lesion removal?

The laser emits an invisible beam at a wavelength of 10,600 nm, which is best absorbed by water. Water comprises 70-90% of our cells and extracellular fluid. This laser heats the skin tissues, evaporates the water, and safely removes skin lesions layer by layer. It also acts as a fractional laser, promoting skin regeneration, which is crucial for faster healing. The CO2 Re laser, emitting dual waves, can precisely rejuvenate both superficial and deep skin layers: the surface, middle, and deep layers, or simultaneously renew all layers.

How many procedures are needed?

Typically, one procedure is sufficient to remove skin lesions, but the exact number will be determined by the doctor during a live assessment.

How to care for the skin after the procedure?

  • Do not wet the treated areas for 12-24 hours.
  • Disinfect the wound with an antiseptic.
  • Avoid scratching or peeling off any formed scabs.
  • Avoid bathing in water bodies, pools, or using saunas for a week after the procedure.
  • Protect the treated area from the sun for 4-8 weeks. Avoid tanning salons and apply sunscreen with SPF 50 every 2-3 hours if exposed to the sun.
