Seborrheic Keratosis Removal
I met this lady not so long ago who was fed up with the itchy dry patch behind her ear. The doctor had told her it was Seborrheic Keratosis and therefore nothing they could do about it since it is benign and classed as cosmetic.
However it was really starting to affect her confidence and also become a nuisance when trying to wear her glasses and she had simply got to a point where she wanted it gone.
After carrying out a consultation where we discussed the treatment, what to expect and ensured we could go ahead after checking her medical history etc , I took a look at the blemish and various others at the time so assess what needed to be done and how and also a treatment plan for that and the other blemishes we discussed.
Here you can see the Seb K behinmd the left ear. I initially carried out a skin test on a section of the blemish to ensure it healed as expected. When my client came back to me with the healing being as wanted, I removed the rest of the blemish using the tap and scrape method with diathermy where this softens the Seb K and is then easy to scrape away. There are various methods of removal to choose from but with this blemish this worked just perfectly.
As you can see in the right hand picture this blemish has healed beautifully. This was taken 2 weeks post treatment and the client was over the moon. Following treatment she followed the aftercare given and also applied clinisept to the area a couple of times a day for the first few days to keep the area clean and free of infection.
