What is Skin Surgery?
Skin surgery encompasses various operative procedures performed on the skin to address a range of dermatological issues. Typically conducted under local anesthesia, these procedures are carried out by a dermatologist trained in skin surgery. The goal is to treat skin conditions, remove lesions, or improve skin appearance through surgical means.
Common Skin Surgery Procedures
- Electrosurgery: Utilized for managing warts, skin tags, and other benign skin growths. This method uses electrical currents to remove or destroy the targeted tissue.
- Radiosurgery: Employs radiofrequency energy to treat skin tags, dermatofibromas, and other lesions. It is a precise method that minimizes damage to surrounding tissue.
- Intralesional Injections: Used for treating keloids, hypertrophic scars, and alopecia areata. Steroids or other medications are injected directly into the lesion to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
- Skin Biopsy: Includes various techniques like punch biopsy and excisional biopsy to diagnose skin conditions and diseases. A small sample of skin is removed and examined microscopically.
- Tattoo Removal Surgery: Involves the surgical removal of tattoos. This method is considered when laser treatments are not viable.
- Curettage and Chemical Cauterization: Used to treat skin lesions by scraping away affected tissue and applying a chemical agent to destroy abnormal cells.
- Surgical Removal of Corns and Moles: Corns and moles are removed through minor surgical procedures to alleviate discomfort and address cosmetic concerns.
- Scar Revision Surgery: Aims to improve the appearance of scars by removing or altering scar tissue.
- Skin Grafting: Procedures such as punch grafting and suction blister grafting are used to manage stable vitiligo. Healthy skin is transplanted to replace areas affected by the condition.
- Cryosurgery: Involves the application of liquid nitrogen to freeze and remove abnormal skin lesions (currently not offered at the clinic).
- Dermabrasion: A technique that uses a rotating instrument to exfoliate the upper layers of the skin, improving texture and appearance (currently not offered at the clinic).
- Hair Transplant: A surgical procedure to relocate hair follicles from one part of the body to another (currently not offered at the clinic).
- Ear Piercing: Performed using sterile techniques to minimize infection risks.
Consulting a Dermatosurgeon
When skin conditions such as warts, skin tags, moles, keloids, and scars cannot be effectively managed through medication alone, skin surgery may be necessary. A dermatosurgeon, or skin surgeon, is a dermatologist with specialized training in these procedures.
