Seborrheic Keratosis

Laser Removal For Seborrheic Keratosis At City Laser Clinic

Seborrheic keratosis is a common, benign skin growth that typically appears as a brown, black or tan lesion. These growths can develop on various parts of the body, especially in areas that get regular sun exposure. Common sites include the back, face, chest and shoulders.

While seborrheic keratosis is harmless, it can cause irritation by catching on clothing and jewellery, or affect your confidence if highly visible. If your seborrheic keratosis is bothering you, you'll be happy to know that it's quick and painless to remove with laser at City Laser Clinic in Leicester.

Why Choose Laser Seborrheic Keratosis Removal?

Laser seborrheic keratosis removal is highly effective. Here are some of the main benefits of choosing this treatment at our Leicester laser clinic:

Precision and Control: We use the latest Candela Gentle Pro™ technology, which targets lesions directly, keeping the surrounding skin intact.

Non-Invasive Procedure: Laser is a non-surgical procedure, which means no needles or stitches. 

Quick Recovery: With laser, you can expect rapid healing, with treated areas on the face recovering in .a week, and on the body in about two weeks.

Minimal Side Effects: There are fewer side effects when using laser compared to other removal methods.

What To Expect At Your Seborrheic Keratosis Removal Treatment

Consultation and Patch Test: Prior to your treatment, you'll need to come in for a consultation so we can assess the lesions. Our skin experts will determine whether laser removal is suitable for you. A patch test will be performed to ensure your skin responds well to the laser.

During the Procedure: The laser will emit targeted energy to the seborrheic keratosis, breaking down the pigmented and thickened skin, while sparing the surrounding tissue. The procedure is generally well-tolerated, with patients experiencing minimal discomfort.

Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, the treated area may appear gray, and will slowly darken over the course of about two weeks. The lesion will eventually come away on its own.
