Treatment options for Lesion Removal
There are two different types of treatment options for Lesions removal:
- Non-surgical

Non-Surgical treatments for Lesions removal
Non-surgical treatments for lesions removal include
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy uses a freezing technique to freeze and remove abnormal tissues. It is a short treatment where the practitioner applies a particular solution to the skin lesion with a cotton swab. It leads to the formation of ice crystals in the lesion that breaks up the lesion cells. In the end, the lesions are picked up to finish the treatment.
It is commonly used to treat skin warts (verruca Vulgaris), seborrheic keratoses, actinic keratoses, and molluscum contagiosum
Laser excision
A laser device is used to remove the lesions. The high-frequency laser beam heats the cells of the lesion until they burst. Eventually, the lesion will be destroyed. However, usually, more than one session is needed to eliminate the lesion.
Surgical treatments
Shave Excision
Shave excision is a surgical procedure that is used for lesions present in the upper layer of skin. An incision is made into the upper layer of the skin and the affected area is removed.
After removing the lesion, the practitioner will apply the medication with bandages or use stitches to conclude the treatment.
Scissor Excision
Scissor excision is another surgical technique for lesion removal. It uses two scissors to cut off the affected area.
The practitioner will use forceps (a type of surgical tool like scissors) to pull up or grab the lesions. A cut will be made around and under the lesion, and the affected area will be cleaned with a curette. (A typical instrument to scrape skin).
Skin Excision
Skin excision technique involves the removal of lesions from the deeper layers of the skin. A small number of adjacent tissues may also be removed to ensure that it is free of cancerous cells.
The skin is removed in a round shape which makes the stitches easier. A skin graft or flap of normal skin may be used to replace the skin that was removed.
Curettage and Electrosurgery
This procedure involves the scrapping of skin lesions. The affected area is then heated to prevent bleeding and destroy any remaining cancerous cells.
The treatment is ideal for superficial lesions that do not need skin excision.
