How long does it take for laser mole removal to heal? Four methods of mole removal

Laser mole removal is a very common thing. In our daily life, many people will do laser mole removal. The risk of laser mole removal is very small and the effect is fast. However, many people have many pits after laser mole removal. How long does it take for the pits to recover? Four methods of mole removal.

How long does it take to recover from laser mole removal?

Normally, the pits left after laser mole removal will recover in 2-6 months. The reason for such a long recovery time is that the size of the pits left by laser mole removal varies from person to person, so the time it takes for the skin to repair itself is also different. Many beauty-loving fairies ask if the pits left by laser mole removal can be healed? In fact, the pits left after laser mole removal can be healed, but if a large pit that affects the appearance is formed, it can be eliminated through injection and surgery.

Laser mole removal pit recovery time is related to the quality of the equipment

If you want to shorten the recovery time of the pit after laser mole removal, it is best to choose a more advanced laser device for laser mole removal. The more advanced the laser equipment, the faster the recovery after mole removal. The energy of ordinary domestic laser instruments is not easy to control, and it is easy to cause pits to normal skin tissue, which will indirectly increase the recovery time of the pit after laser mole removal.

Laser mole removal pit recovery time is related to care

After laser mole removal, those who want to recover the pits as soon as possible need to do a good job of postoperative care and avoid doing things that will affect the efficacy of laser mole removal, so as to minimize the extension of the recovery time of the pits.

Four methods of removing moles

Electrocautery

Method: Apply the principle of electric high temperature burning to remove the mole by burning and carbonization. Advantages: Easy to operate. Disadvantages: Difficult to control the degree of burning, easy to leave scars, unacceptable. Indications: Effective for shallow combined moles and deep and raised compound moles, moles with a diameter of 0.3-0.5 cm.

Surgical resection

Method: surgical removal of the diseased tissue around the mole. Advantages: this method can be used to partially or completely remove the diseased tissue, and different treatment methods can be used according to the nature of the mole. Disadvantages: difficult, time-consuming, and rarely used for general moles. Indications: large and raised moles with a diameter of more than 0.6 cm.

Chemical etching

Method: Generally, 50% nitrocarbonic acid solution or alkaline agents such as sodium hydroxide are applied to the mole. Advantages: nitrocarbonic acid solution is not easy to burn the skin and cause scars; alkaline solution is highly corrosive and may take effect quickly. Disadvantages: nitrocarbonic acid solution has a slow effect, and deeper moles may need to be applied 10 times; sodium hydroxide is not easy to control the corrosion depth, and may cause deep scars. Indications: Moles with lighter colors and shallower locations.

Freezing method

Method: Use liquid nitrogen to freeze the mole tissue very quickly, so that the cells around the mole form blisters and then fall off by themselves. Advantages: The depth of destruction is relatively easy to control, and it can usually be done in one time, and it is not easy to cause obvious scars. Disadvantages: Large and thick moles must be frozen multiple times to be removed, and special instruments must be equipped. The doctor's skills are also very important. Because it is difficult to control the depth and often causes damage, it is not used in dermatology to treat moles. Indications: Flat moles with a diameter of 0.3-0.5 cm, including freckles, etc.

Tips for repairing mole pits

Laser mole removal can be used to inject collagen

If a beauty lover's skin has pits after laser mole removal, it means that the dermis is damaged. If the beauty lover is particularly concerned about the pits after laser mole removal, then collagen injection can improve the pits left after mole removal.

The principle of collagen filling pits is that after collagen is injected into the human body, it can quickly play a supporting role at the injection site, and then the connective tissue cells around the implantation site will grow into the collagen network structure, gradually forming a structure similar to normal tissue, stimulating fibroblasts to produce their own collagen, thereby filling the depression after laser mole removal and restoring the pit to smoothness.

Laser mole removal can be repaired with surgery

After laser mole removal, pits appear, which are also called depressed scars. Generally, depressed scars can be removed by mechanical stimulation, grinding surgery, or medication. If the depression is not large in area, fairies who love beauty can wait for approval to repair the pits after laser mole removal by self-repair.

Using Medication to Care for Dimples

Under the guidance of a doctor, use medical antibiotics to apply to the pits to prevent the pits from being invaded by bacteria and becoming inflamed and infected.

In addition, use anti-scar drugs to apply to the pits to allow the skin to repair the pits as soon as possible. Be careful not to apply too many times, otherwise it will affect the formation of scabs.

Focus on sun protection for the dent area and the whole body

Beauty lovers need to pay attention to sun protection within 3 months after laser mole removal treatment, as this will cause the color of the pit to darken. Studies have shown that ultraviolet rays in sunlight are the main culprit for skin photoaging and darkening (spots, red bloodshot, and fine wrinkles). Therefore, in order to avoid darkening of the color after laser mole removal, it is best to choose different medical sunscreens (such as Winona sunscreen and Avene Natural Protection sunscreen) according to different environments.

Precautions after mole removal

1. After laser mole removal, please pay attention to the cleanliness of the wound surface and do not scratch it with your hands to avoid infection and inflammation of the wound.

2. After laser mole removal, keep the wound surface dry and do not let it come into contact with water before the scab forms and falls off. Once it comes into contact with water, immediately absorb the moisture with a clean dry towel to avoid infection.

3. After laser mole removal, remember not to eat spicy foods such as onions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers, so as not to irritate the wound and slow down healing, leaving scars.

4. After laser mole removal, be sure to cover the wound and do not expose it to direct sunlight, as this will cause pigmentation in the wound and leave a mark.

5. If the scar from mole removal is on the face, remember not to apply skin care products to the wound after the removal, as this will cause infection of the wound.

6. After laser mole removal, let the scab fall off automatically. Do not remove the scab manually with your hands, as this will leave scars.
