•Skin Tags•

Skin TagsSkin tags are loose skin that is attached to the body that are formed by friction on the skin which can be from clothing, accessories or even from rubbing skin. They are usually found on the neck, armpits, around the groin, or under the breasts. They can also grow on the eyelids or under the folds of the buttocks. Men are often prone to skin tags as they are exposed to more friction on the skin from high collars and shirts. Skin tags are very common, harmless, and can vary in colour and size. During treatment these small blemishes are cauterised and removed instantly, with small red marks or scabbing appearing after treatment. These will disappear after 7-10 days.

•Millia•

(small white spots under the skin)

Milia are tiny cysts that are located immediately below the epidermis, the very outer layer of skin, making their distinctive colouring so visible. The white comes from an excess build-up of keratin, which is natural part of the skin, also found in nails and hair. The current directed during the treatment cauterises the blemish and the milia is reabsorbed back into the skin. Results can start to show up to a month after treatment.

 

•Thread Veins/Spider Veins•

Thread veins are tiny blood vessels which run close to the surface of the skin and look like fine red, or sometimes purple, wiggly lines. They're also sometimes called 'spider veins' or 'broken veins', although the veins aren't, broken but only slightly enlarged. The medical term for them is telangiectasia. Thread (or spider) veins tend to develop as we age and our skin and blood vessels get less elastic. Hormonal changes, due to pregnancy or the menopause for example, can lead to thread veins. Our environment can also contribute to the development: too much exposure to the sun, wind or extreme temperatures, can also cause spider veins to develop. Results from Advanced Electrolysis treatment are permanent but genetics also play a role in their formation so you may prone developing these little veins. We can also treat spider veins with our IPL machine, will determine the most appropriate method in your treatment or consultation

•Moles•

A common mole is a coloured spot on the skin that develops when pigment cells (melanocytes) grow in clusters. The medical term for moles is melanocytic naevi and most adults usually have between 10 and 40 on their body. With Advanced Electrolysis treatment the mole is reduced by half its size in a single treatment and will continue to reduce as the scab forms and disappears. One top-up treatment may be necessary, but this will be discussed as part of our aftercare follow up appointment. It should be noted that Advanced Electrolysis can safely remove smaller flatter moles any larger raised moles would need to be referred to a dermatologist in the first instance.

 

•Blood spots•

Blood Spots are caused by small veins lying just beneath the outer layer of the skin. These small red/purple-coloured spots are quite commonly seen on the skin and often appear with age. Blood spots are tiny pools of blood under the skin that occur when small blood vessels burst, they vary in size and sometimes a larger patch of spots can develop but are normally harmless. The treatment itself will take no more than half an hour from start to finish, or maybe less if the area to be treated is quite small. A single treatment is normally enough to remove an individual Blood Spot, and once treated the small blood pool beneath the skin’s surface is reabsorbed into the body, causing the red appearance to disappear.
