Professional Removal of Viral Skin Growths & Bumps
Small bumps or lesions like molluscum contagiosum are often mistaken for acne. I provide safe, clinical removal methods to stop the spread and clear your skin effectively.
This short video answers frequently asked questions about molluscum contagiosum, a common viral skin infection often mistaken for pimples. I explain what it is, how it spreads, and the professional treatments I offer, such as cryotherapy and curettage, to safely remove the bumps.
About Viral & Benign Growth Removal
Many patients come to me assuming a new cluster of bumps is just acne, but these viral lesions require different handling. If you try to squeeze or scrub them, you risk spreading the virus to other parts of your body. In my clinic, we prioritize safe removal techniques like curettage or cryotherapy to stop the spread and ensure they heal cleanly.
Understanding Viral Skin Growths
When you notice persistent bumps or lesions, it is natural to want to treat them like standard acne. However, conditions like molluscum contagiosum are viral, meaning they can spread through touch or shared objects like towels and clothing. They require targeted dermatological intervention rather than standard skincare products.
My Removal Process
In my clinic on Sarjapur Road, I do not believe in quick fixes that might leave scarring. Whether we are dealing with molluscum, skin tags, or other benign growths, I start with a proper diagnosis. Once confirmed, we discuss appropriate options:
- Curettage: Gently removing the bump.
- Cryotherapy: Using controlled cooling to treat the lesion.
- Laser Therapy: For precise removal with minimal downtime.
Why Professional Care Matters
It is easy to find home remedies online, but these often lead to secondary infections or permanent marks. During your consultation, I will explain the procedure, expected healing time, and how to maintain hygiene at home to prevent recurrence. My focus is on safe, clinical practice that respects your skin health.
