How do we do it?

Radio-frequency (RF) technology has been used in the operating theatre by surgeons for decades. But now, professionals use it outside of the hospital and in the clinic setting. Monopolar electrocautery passes electricity via a probe through the patient to the grounding pad attached to the patient. Away from the active electrode, the current disseminate through the body with minimal current, therefore causing no tissue damage remote to the surgical site (Minieri, 2014, 477-8).

Why do we use it?

RF allows us to be as precise as possible and only remove the minimal amount of tissue to remove the mole. RF allows your skin to heal in layers with only a small amount of trauma and, as a consequence, dramatically reduces the risk of bad-looking scars.

Can I still get a scar?

No treatment is 100% risk-free from scar, but using RF technology is the best way to reduce risk. In the unlikely case that you do end up with a scar post-procedure, we offer all our patients complimentary Procell micro-needling treatment with LED light therapy to improve your results.

How is it performed?

One of our expert Cosmetic Doctors carefully assesses your mole and starts by examining it with a dermatoscopy. This device illuminates the lesion and, at the same time, magnifies it to give a good analysis of whether it is cancerous or not. When cleared, we numb the area with a small local anesthetic injection and then ablate it.
