Minor Skin Procedures

What To Expect From A Minor Skin Procedure

A minor skin procedure can be conducted in-office and does not require any time off work. The procedure may be conducted with a local anesthetic. Depending on the patient's needs, our doctors may use a scalpel, a curette (a looped instrument), or liquid nitrogen to remove or address the skin issue. Liquid Nitrogen Therapy is also used for actinic keratosis and problematic seborrhoeic keratosis.

Sometimes, a patient might need a more extensive procedure or a skin biopsy for suspicious skin lesions. In these cases, our dedicated team handles any necessary referrals and provides updates about the biopsy results.
