BLEMISH REMOVAL
Non-Surgical Blemish Removal is a very sought after a procedure involving the removal of Telangiectasia (red veins), Spider Naevi, Skin Tags, Blood Spots, Seborrhoeic Keratosis, Milia, Hairy Moles and Viral Warts using Advanced Electrolysis or Plasma Fibroblast. Skin blemishes can be very unsightly and often cause a loss of confidence. However, most can be removed or reduced safely without any scarring using advanced surgical electrolysis. Surgical electrolysis uses a tiny needle & electric current to treat the blemish. The plasma deviced used is fitted with a small surgical probe which creates electrical energy that is then used to ionise the oxygen and nitrogen in the air to form a small electrical arc, Annihilating everything in it's path. Many of us suffer with minor skin blemishes that can affect our confidence, skin issues are much more common than many people would think, due to a combination of factors including ageing, UV Damage and certain health conditions.
Electrolysis has been used for more than 100 years to treat problems such as broken capillaries, spider naevi and warts. It has progressed dramatically with the ongoing development of modern technology and is a simple and safe technique. Electrolysis is used to successfully remove, visibly reduce and improve the appearance of unwanted skin blemishes, offering immediate and effective results.
How does it work?
Advanced Electrolysis is a treatment that uses a Thermolysis current and a very fine needle to either cauterise or lift away the superficial epidermis, depending on the type of blemish that is being treated.
Spider Veins (red veins):
Commonly found on the face and neck they sit just below the skin surface, often containing a central red spot and reddish extensions which radiate outwards like a spider's web. They are common and may be benign, presenting in around 10-15% of healthy adults.
Cherry Angioma (blood spots):
Made up of clusters of tiny capillaries at the surface of the skin, forming a small round dome. They range in color from bright red to purple. Initially, they may be only a tenth of a millimeter in diameter and almost flat, appearing as small red dots. However, they then usually grow to about one or two millimeters across, and sometimes to a centimeter.
Skin Tags:
These are an overgrowth of skin cells. Most commonly found in areas that rub such as necklines, underarms and skin folds. Skin tags have a loose area of excess skin attached with a stalk and can vary greatly in size from a pinhead to broad bean.
Seborrhoeic Keratosis:
These are the only type of wart that is non-contagious. They are a symptom of aging, long-term sun damage, and genetics. They are found on the temples, sides of the face and upper body. They can vary in color from pale yellow to a very dark brown and resemble a ‘bran flake’ that has been stuck to the skin.
Sebaceous Cysts:
This blemish is a plug of sebum contained in a sebaceous sac under the skin that is blocked by an overgrowth of the surface epidermis. They vary in size dramatically and areas they appear most commonly are the face, chest, scalp, and back.
Milia:
These are tiny hard keratinized ‘pearls’ which sit just under the surface of the skin. They vary in size from a tiny grain of sand to garden pea. The exact cause is unknown, but rich creams, too much Vitamin C and high cholesterol have all been apportioned blame.
Warts:
Warts are small, non-cancerous, quite contagious growths caused by a strain of the human papillomas virus. There are various types of warts, including plane warts and common warts.
