Blemish Removal
Whether you're dealing with skin tags, warts, verrucas, age spots or other blemishes, our treatments are here to help you look and feel your best. We are trained in both Cryopen blemish removal which uses a jet of nitrous oxide to freeze and destroy the skin cells and electrolysis which uses a very precise probe to remove the blemish with a current that cauterises or coagulates the tissue.
Both methods are quick and minimally invasive. Most blemishes can be removed in one treatment. When booking a treatment for blemish removal, we will advise you on the most suitable method of treatment.

Aftercare
-
It is normal for the area to appear like a small burn afterwards, it may be red, swollen and tender. There may be mild blistering, scabbing, crusting or leakage of fluid. If you are concerned about healing or the skin's appearance, you must contact your practitioner.
-
If a larger blister forms or a blood blister, then please seek advice from your practitioner. If a blister bursts, use a simple anti-septic cream such as Savalon or apply Calomine powder. The area will naturally scab over, with the scabs falling off at 2-3 weeks.
-
Keep the treated area clean and dry afterwards, wash using soap and water and dry by gently dabbing with a clean towel.
-
Apply an antiseptic cream or calomine powder to the treated area twice daily for 2 weeks.
-
If blisters scab over, do not pick them as this can encourage scarring.
-
Leave the treated area undressed (to the open air) unless clothing is irritating the treated area, in which case a plaster can be applied.
-
The treated area might be slightly sore afterwards, if needed you can take some simple over the counter pain killers such as paracetamol.
-
The healing process may take up to 6 weeks.
-
You must seek medical attention and contact your practitioner if you experience any signs or symptoms of infection after treatment. Infection can present as hot, red shiny skin, there may be pus formation and you may have a fever or feel generally unwell.
