Effortlessly remove annoying skin tags, milia and other skin blemishes with one treatment and no scarring and minimal downtime!

Do you have annoying skin tags on your neck, bra line, or underarms that are constantly catching on your clothing or jewelry? What about the little red polka dots, or cherry angiomas, on your stomach and chest? Or maybe, you’re plagued by those hard white bumps around your eyes or on your forehead? If so Hyfrecator Blemish Removal may be your best solution to remove them safely and effectively with little to no downtime!

A Hyfrecator is a safe form of electrosurgery in which controlled current is used to heat up and destroy tissue. It is a low powered device that works very well for destroying skin tags, red skin spots (cherry angiomas), sun spots (seborrheic keratosis), and a medley of other undesirable skin blemishes. The depth of the burn the Hyfrecator creates is very shallow. As a result, a protective crust protects the healthy underlying skin during healing process. This treatment is one of the best (and safest) treatment modalities for superficial lesions like skin tags and red spots!

During your initial consultation, your Licensed Esthetician will confirm that your skin blemish or lesion is appropriate for removal with the Hyfrecator. In some cases, she may suggest an alternative method such as Laser Vein Therapy. She will also discuss any pre and post care that will make your treatment more effective and improve your healing.

Treatments with the Hyfrecator are only mildly uncomfortable. Your Certified Laser Clinician may apply a cool compress or even numbing cream to the treatment site beforehand, but many patients do not need this. The sensation of the treatment is oftentimes described as “hot and pokey,” but the treatment is so quick, that only minimal discomfort is experienced.

Most patients see complete removal of their skin blemish within one session, although up to 3 sessions may be needed for more persistent milia, or skin tags.. Unlike other methods available, the Hyfrecator causes no scarring and incurs minimal downtime after your procedure. Your Certified Laser Technician will discuss the proper post care to keep your treatment area clear and healthy and to prevent future occurrences.
