1. Consult
You'll come in for a free consultation with one of our plastic surgeons. During this consultation, the plastic surgeon will determine whether the skin lesions you want removed are actually achievable. A treatment plan will be created, after which you'll receive your personalized quote. During the consultation, there's plenty of time to address all your questions, concerns, and doubts.
2. Operation
The treatment area will be marked, after which we will administer local anesthesia. The skin will be incised along the marked area, and the skin will be removed down to the subcutaneous fatty tissue. The surgeon will cauterize any small bleeding vessels. The wound edges will then be sutured or taped together. You will feel the incision during the procedure, but you will not experience any pain.
3. Aftercare
For healing it is important to avoid tension on the wound edges as much as possible. Wounds on the back, shoulders and lower legs in particular can be subject to considerable stress during movement. Certain movements such as bending, lifting, putting on and taking off clothes should be avoided or performed with great care. Depending on the location and size of the wound, sports are not recommended one to four weeks after the procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions
For the first two weeks after treatment, it's important to keep your wounds completely out of the sun. After these two weeks, apply plenty of sunscreen. For optimal healing, keep your wounds out of the sun for three months.
Ultraviolet rays are harmful to scars, causing them to remain red for an unnecessarily long time. Furthermore, sun exposure can cause pigment disruption in the treated area, potentially darkening the scar.
No, due to the local anesthetic, you won't experience any pain during the treatment. You may feel the incision, but you'll only feel the pressure and movement, not pain.
In almost all cases, scarring occurs after the removal of skin spots. The scar heals better with one than with the other. Sometimes the scar is almost invisible after a few months. This depends on the skin type. Sometimes it happens that the scar thickens very much. Hypertrophy (excessive swelling or enlargement) or keloid formation (scar growth) may occur. Patients with Asian or Creole skin are more likely to experience this complication. This predisposition is sometimes hereditary. The characteristics of a hypertrophic scar are: a hard and thick, sometimes painful scar, raised above the surrounding skin, often discolored or white or reddish.
A keloid is a special kind of scar. The scar is very hard and thick, often very painful and red. Keloids grow beyond the boundaries of the injury and can cover very large areas of skin. The skin of the chest, upper arms, ears, and shoulders are common places where keloid can develop. If you suspect that your scar is hypertrophied or keloid-forming, please contact your plastic surgeon for further treatment.
There may be a bruising, usually accompanied by swelling. An infection can also occur, which is manifested by pain, swelling, redness and pus from the wound.
If unexpected problems arise, for example when an ignition occurs, please contact us.
If you experience any complaints after the procedure, we recommend that you always contact the clinic. Because we are a subsidiary of OLVG, We are available 24/7 in case of complications.
