Plasma pen: Local skin tags, seborrheic or actinic keratosis removal

A brief medical overview of Plasma Pen for removing skin and fat tags
The Plasma Pen device is a modern, non-surgical medical technology used to remove a variety of skin lesions, including some small skin and fat tags. The device relies on the release of plasma energy resulting from the ionization of gases in the air between the device tip and the skin.

How does Plasma Pen work?

When the device tip approaches the skin, a tiny electrical spark (plasma arc) is generated, which precisely and controlledly vaporizes the outer layer of the targeted skin. This process results in:

Immediate tissue contraction helps tighten the skin surrounding the lesion.

Stimulation of collagen and elastin production, which contributes to long-term skin regeneration.

Destruction of targeted cells, which leads to the removal of small skin and fat tags.

Uses of Plasma Pen for removing skin and fat tags:

Removal of small skin tags (skin tags): These are small, soft skin tags that often appear in areas of friction.

Removal of some types of small moles: After a doctor confirms their non-malignant nature.
Removal of small sebaceous cysts (milia): These are small white bumps that appear as a result of keratin retention beneath the skin's surface.
Improving the appearance of some small and superficial scars.

Advantages of using Plasma Pen:

Non-surgical or minimally invasive: It does not require large surgical incisions.
High precision: It precisely targets the skin lesion with minimal impact on surrounding tissue.
Relatively short recovery period: Redness and swelling are usually mild and last for a few days.
Immediate results are noticeable in some cases.
Long-term collagen stimulation.

Important Notes:

Medical Diagnosis Required: You should always consult a dermatologist to diagnose the nature of your skin or sebaceous tag before using Plasma Pen to ensure it is safe for removal.

Not all tags are suitable: Plasma Pen may not be the ideal choice for all types and sizes of skin and sebaceous tags.

Multiple Sessions May Be Required: In some cases, multiple sessions may be required to achieve the desired results.

Recovery Period: It is normal to experience redness, swelling, and small scabs in the treated area after the session.

You should follow your doctor's care instructions to avoid complications.

In short, the plasma pen is a promising technique for removing some small skin and fat tags non-surgically and precisely, with a relatively short recovery period. However, prior medical diagnosis and evaluation by a specialist physician are essential to ensure safety and effectiveness.
