What to Expect – The Treatment Process

Our comprehensive treatment protocol ensures optimal results and patient comfort throughout the entire process:

Step 1. Consultation & Assessment

Your lesion will be thoroughly assessed by one of our consultant plastic surgeons using advanced dermatoscopic examination. If the lesion is confirmed as benign and safe for laser removal, treatment can often be performed on the same day, providing convenience and peace of mind.

Step 2. Laser Removal Procedure

Local anaesthetic is carefully administered to ensure complete comfort during the procedure. The lesion is then removed layer by layer using the precise SmartPunto CO₂ laser system. Treatment time is typically 10-20 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of the lesion.

Step 3. Aftercare Healing & Comprehensive

The healing process typically takes 5-10 days, with most patients experiencing minimal discomfort. A small protective dressing may be applied initially, and detailed aftercare instructions are provided. Most patients can return to normal activities immediately following treatment.

Our team provides ongoing support throughout the healing process, ensuring optimal recovery and results.

Laser Lesion Removal FAQs

Common Questions About Laser Lesion Removal

Can all lesions be removed with CO₂ laser?

No – suspicious or potentially cancerous lesions must be removed surgically and sent for histological examination. Our consultant surgeons will assess each lesion during consultation and advise on the most appropriate treatment approach.

Does laser lesion removal hurt?

No – local anaesthetic is used to ensure the procedure is completely comfortable. Most patients report feeling no pain during treatment, with only mild sensitivity during the healing process.

How long does healing take?

Most areas heal within 5-10 days, depending on the size and location of the lesion. Facial lesions typically heal faster due to better blood supply, while body lesions may take slightly longer.

Will I have scarring after treatment?

CO₂ laser removal is specifically designed to minimise scarring through precise tissue removal and controlled healing. Most patients heal with a flat, natural skin finish that blends seamlessly with surrounding skin.

What aftercare is required?

Aftercare is straightforward and involves keeping the treated area clean and dry, applying prescribed ointment, and avoiding sun exposure. Detailed instructions are provided, and our team is available for any questions during healing.
