Electrocautery is a common dermatological procedure that uses controlled electric current to remove unwanted skin lesions such as warts, skin tags, seborrheic keratoses, and other benign growths. The heat generated by the current precisely destroys the targeted tissue while sealing blood vessels, minimizing bleeding and promoting faster healing.
At Rejuvenation Dermatology, electrocautery is performed quickly and safely under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. The procedure involves touching a heated probe to the lesion, effectively removing or shrinking it with precision. Electrocautery is ideal for small, superficial lesions and offers excellent cosmetic results with minimal scarring.
Healing usually occurs within one to two weeks. Patients may experience mild redness, scabbing, or tenderness as the skin regenerates. Electrocautery provides an effective, minimally invasive solution for clearing unwanted skin lesions, restoring smoother, healthier-looking skin without the need for stitches or extensive recovery.
