1. What
types of moles need to be shaved, and
what types should be cauterized? |
| |
|
 |
Many of the moles
on the face are protruding, what method
to use actually depends on their area
size. Usually moles that are smaller
than 0.5 cm we recommend to be cauterized;
cauterizing moles larger than 0.5 cm
will leave scars and indentations. So
we recommend getting the larger moles
removed by shaving to be safer and more
accurate. Of course, if the doctor suspects
that the mole is potentially cancerous,
then the only option is to remove the
mole and get it tested in a laboratory. |
|
| |
|
2.
Is it better to have moles removed
by laser, or by cauterization? |
| |
|
|
This should
be determined by a professional
doctor. Usually moles that are
flat and on the surface of skin
can be removed by laser without
leaving any indentations or scars;
the disadvantage is it requires
more than one therapy session
to get rid of the moles entirely,
and great care needs to be taken
in the sun to prevent discolorations.
If it is a protruding mole or
actinic keratosis, then choosing
cauterization may have faster
results. |

1. Will there
be no scar left after scar removal
surgery? |
| |
|
|
Not necessarily!
Scars are caused by two reasons:
first is the stitching skill of
the surgeon, the second is the
body type of the individual. All
surgeries leave scars, and we
can only make them less obvious.
If you are still worrying about
it, you can buy Botox injections
or vitamin C essence to spread
on the scar; to allow the scar
to be improved more thoroughly.
Of course, if we determine that
you have a keloid body type, then
we would not recommend surgery.

|
2. Why would
adding a Botox injection make
the results better? What are the
principles? |
| |
|
|
The principle
of using Botox on scars is relaxing
the affiliated tissue of the skin
(such as hair follicles, sebaceous,
etc…) from contractions or thickening.
It can also slow the growth of
fibrous tissue, which can reduce
the tension of the wounds and
improve the condition of the scars.
Of course the effects only last
4-6 months, but at that time the
growths of the new scars have
usually stabilized, and you do
not need to receive a second injection. |

1. What is
the point of adding a CO2 laser
with microdermabrasion? What are
the results? |
| |
|
|
The main use
of the CO2 laser is to vaporize
the surface of the skin, allows
the wounds to dry and close immediately,
and exudation of natural liquids
and even blood will quickly dry.
The biggest advantage is that
after surgery, it is not necessary
for the patient to be bandaged
up for days. The patients can
even go out after just applying
ointment; it decreases the inconveniences
after traditional microdermabrasion.
Of course, you still need to pay
attention to the moisturizing
and sun care of the wound in order
for it to quickly heal. |
|
|
|
|
2. Is laser
skin resurfacing better or microdermabrasion? |
| |
|
|
This is hard
to say at once. Basically if laser
resurfacing is done well, the
recovery period will be slightly
shorter than microdermabrasion;
but laser skin resurfacing has
hidden fears of discoloration
and scarring. It also cannot achieve
the desired results in one sitting,
and the price is higher; these
factors have obstructed the applications
of laser skin resurfacing.
Of course, if you only have a
small range of acne scars, you
can try using laser skin resurfacing.
We would also recommend you to
use some topical medications like
vitamin C to prevent the problems
of discolorations after surgery,
and the results are usually not
bad! |
