Electrocautery

Electrocautery uses controlled electric current to remove unwanted growths, seal small blood vessels, or treat certain skin conditions. It’s a quick and precise procedure often done under local anesthesia.

Why you might need it:

• Removal of warts, skin tags, or small benign growths.
• Cauterizing tissue to reduce bleeding during surgery.
• Treating small skin lesions for cosmetic or medical reasons.

Benefits:

• Quick and minimally invasive.
• Minimal bleeding and reduced risk of infection.
• Usually leaves little to no visible scarring.
• Short recovery time — most resume activities immediately.
