In modern cosmetology there are many ways of removing warts, nevi and other skin tumors.

Surgical excision�— classical method, represents the excision of the skin, removal of the object and the subsequent imposition of a seam on the placket. Used when removing large lesions (10 mm and more), as well as in situations where there is no full confidence in the benign nature of the phenomenon.

Thermocoagulation�(thermocautery,� cautery, electrotermometria)�— use metal hinges, heated to significant temperatures. In fact, is the burning section of the epidermis with the complete destruction of any education.

Radiosurgical, or electrocoagulation (diathermocoagulation AHWC)�— impact on skin tissue and the formation due to the high frequency electric current, the contact electrode is not heated.

EHVC equipment allows two options:

–�contact method in which the electrode comes into direct interaction with the skin;

–�contactless method in which the current between the skin and the electrode passes through the air.

Depending on the specific unit's current frequency can range (from 400 kHz to 4 MHz).

The main advantage of electrocoagulation�— ability to perform bloodless incisions with simultaneous coagulation; cut like a scalpel, but without any bleeding. The use of ultrathin electrode allows the electrolysis, removal of spider veins on the face and stellate angioma.

Laser photocoagulation, or lateregistration�— the destruction of certain sections of the tissues by exposure to a laser beam. Typically used semiconductor and2 devices. Medicine is light energy.

Cryosurgery�— destruction of skin lesions by freezing. For these purposes most commonly used liquid nitrogen (-195,8 °C); it is applied to the desired area with a cotton swab, a metal applicator or spray. Cryotherapy compares favorably with other methods accuracy (no formation of rough scars) and comfort (no need for additional analgesia).

Chemical destruction�— effects on the skin with chemically active substances, first of all, various acids (nitric, trichloroacetic, salcinovic, etc.) Can be used with cytotoxic drugs (5-ftoruracil, podophyllin, etc.) Despite the high efficiency, this method is associated with difficulties in controlling the depth of tissue destruction.
