Aftercare for skin lesion removal using advanced electrolysis is critical to promote healing and minimise complications. Here’s what to follow:
Do’s
Keep the Area Clean: Do not touch the treated area and keep dry until the scab forms.
Apply Healing Ointment: Use a recommended antiseptic or healing ointment (e.g., aloe vera gel, antibacterial cream) to soothe and protect the skin.
Protect from Sunlight: Avoid sun exposure and use a high SPF sunscreen (30+), even on cloudy days.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to support skin healing.
Be Patient: Allow the scab to form naturally—it’s part of the healing process.
Don’ts
No Picking or Scratching: Avoid touching or picking at the treated area to prevent scarring or infection.
Avoid Harsh Products: Refrain from using exfoliants, retinol, or acidic skincare products until the area has fully healed.
No Makeup: Avoid applying makeup on the treated area for at least 24-48 hours.
Skip Heat and Water Exposure: Avoid saunas, swimming pools, or long baths for 48 hours to prevent irritation or infection.
What to Expect
Mild redness, swelling, or scabbing is normal and should subside within 7-10 days.
Healing times vary depending on the lesion size and skin type.
If unusual symptoms like excessive swelling, redness, or discharge occur, consult Becky.
