Electrocoagulation at the Derm-Al Center is used to remove pathological skin lesions, such as fibromas.
This method involves the use of an electric arc and, with the help of an appropriately shaped electrode, burns or cuts off the lesion. The pain of the procedure depends on the size of the lesions being removed. For larger ones, local anesthesia can be used. After the procedure, a limited inflammatory state occurs, which subsides within a few days.
Removal of Fibromas
Fibromas (fibromata molle, soft fibromata) are soft, often pedunculated nodules that are skin-colored, light brown, or brown, usually narrowed at the base, with a diameter ranging from a few millimeters to a few centimeters. These lesions tend to enlarge with age.
Factors that promote the formation of fibromas include obesity and diabetes.
The most common locations: intertriginous areas (armpits, under the breasts, groin), genital area, as well as the neck and eyelids. Fibromas are usually asymptomatic, but friction against clothing or underwear can cause bleeding and bacterial infections. Another method of treating fibromas is laser or cryosurgery.
