SkinPen Micro-needling

Diathermy is a non-invasive, effective treatment used for the removal of benign skin lesions, such as skin tags, angiomas, seborrheic keratosis, and DPNs. It works by using high-frequency electrical currents to precisely target and heat the tissue, eliminating unwanted growths without damaging the surrounding skin. The treatment is quick, precise, and has minimal downtime.

Diathermy is suitable for individuals looking to remove common benign skin lesions such as:

• Skin tags

• Cherry angiomas

• Sebaceous hyperplasia

• Seborrheic keratosis (Seb K)

• Dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPNs)

A consultation is required to determine suitability for treatment, as some skin lesions may need to be assessed for specific conditions before proceeding.

Most clients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. There may be a slight warm sensation as the electrical current is applied, but this is generally well-tolerated. Topical numbing creams can be used for added comfort, depending on the treatment area.

Diathermy treatments typically require little downtime. Clients may experience mild redness and swelling in the treated area immediately during and after treatment. These effects usually subside within a few hours to a few days. Crusting or scabbing may occur two or three days post-treatment, which generally heals within 7–14 days, depending on the area treated. Facial treatments usually have a recovery time of 5–7 days, while neck and body areas may take up to 14 days to fully heal. The healing process is generally quick, with minimal impact on daily activities.

Most skin lesions can be effectively treated in a single session. However, depending on the size and number of lesions, additional treatments may be required. Your therapist will provide a personalised treatment plan during the consultation.

The cost for Diathermy treatments varies based on the type of lesion and the size of the treatment area. Typical pricing includes:

• Skin Tag Removal: From $219 (15 mins)

• Sebaceous Hyperplasia Removal: From $89 (15 mins)

• Superficial Benign Lesions Removal (Seb K, DPN): From $89 (15 mins)
