Lesion Removal in Wexford PA

Lesion removal is a specialized procedure designed to eliminate abnormal growths or skin tags, which can range from warts and moles to lipomas and potentially cancerous growths. These lesions can present in various sizes, shapes, and colors, and may either lie flat or protrude from the skin. Led by Pittsburgh's Dr. Theodore Lazzaro, lesion removal serves both cosmetic and preventive health purposes. Many are unaware that this procedure is often covered by insurance, ensuring that patients receive the best care without undue financial burden.

Addressing lesions, particularly those with irregular edges or varying shades, is crucial as they can develop into severe skin cancers like malignant melanoma. Keratoses, raised yellowish-brown lesions, often appear on sun-exposed areas and can progress to basal or squamous cell cancer if untreated. At Aestique Plastic Surgery, lesion removals are minimally invasive and usually done under local anesthesia, taking 15 to 45 minutes. Most patients have minimal discomfort and no downtime. For complex cases, Dr. Lazzaro may advise limited physical activity. Book a consultation today for personalized lesion removal advice.
