Thermocoagulation – Vascular Blemish Removal

Thermocoagulation is a painless, non-invasive, cosmetic treatment for benign lesions that uses a tiny pinpoint probe softly put to the skin. Since high-frequency energy is used instead of a laser during this procedure, just a minor heat and prickly sensation are experienced.

Thermocoagulation is used for treating and removing a variety of skin anomalies, spider veins, broken capillaries, skin tags, millia, petechia, cherry angiomas, and more. Your skin appearance improves over a period of time. There is also little or no downtime experienced. However, there is a bit of healing to take place following your procedure.

Thermocoagulation works because of the water on the epidermal tissue’s surface layer. The skin around the lesion is left unharmed as the pinpoint probe precisely targets it. The lesion that has been treated instantly begins to dehydrate and crust after therapy, and after about 7 to 10 days of healing, it exfoliates and falls off. Thermocoagulation effectively treats scalp lesions without destroying any hair (or impeding hair growth), making it safe for sensitive areas surrounding the eyes.

Treatment is provided by way of the latest in visual technology with multiple degrees of magnification to ensure precise insertions.

Advanced training is required with thermocoagulation; always be sure to know the credentials of the practitioner that will treat you with any procedure.
