If you can read this, you probably have some moles! In fact, the average person will develop 10-40 moles over the course of their lifetime. For the most part, this isn’t cause for concern. Even though some moles may be unattractive or uncomfortable, most are benign. This is often the case when a mole is flesh-colored, small, and symmetrical. Where there is more likely to be a concern is when moles are black, large, misshapen, or changing. These moles are more likely to be dangerous, specifically, that they may be signs of a form of skin cancer called melanoma.
Can I Have Skin Tags on My Eyelids Removed?
People can find skin lesions anywhere on their body. While moles and other lesions often form on simple areas like the forearm or the leg, they also form in particularly sensitive areas like the groin, or even the eyelid! It can be particularly bothersome when they form on the eyelid. Since the eyelid is a place on the body where skin frequently rubs together this can cause a good amount of discomfort in some patients. Worst still, if the skin tags are allowed to grow, they could grow so big that they can cause an impairment in the patient’s vision! Most of these patients want to get their skin tags removed, but the issue arises that this is a very sensitive area on the body. Any treatment of the eyelid would have to be sensitive enough such that it won’t harm the patient’s precious eyes and vision, thereby making the problem worse!
Fortunately, we here at Mole Removal San Francisco are here to help! We are able to treat skin tags on a patient’s eyelid. Our radiofrequency ablation technology is definitely sensitive enough to treat the eyelid without harming the patient’s eyes. This is often great news, as not all practitioners are not confident enough to remove skin tags on the eyelids. If this is a problem you’re working with, we definitely recommend that you give us a call to prevent the skin tags from growing larger and becoming a real problem.
Importantly, it’s a bad idea to try to remove these skin tags at home. Doing so could lead to problems that are actually worse than the problems that your skin tags could give you. Some treatments that are done at home include the application of apple cider vinegar to the skin. People on the Internet will say that you can apply apple cider vinegar to the skin and allow the acidity of the apple cider vinegar to harm the mole cells and cause them to fall off. However, this treatment may also cause harm to the healthy skin around the mole. At its worst, this can actually lead to the person attempting an at-home treatment getting chemical burns! As is the case with most medical procedures, then, it’s best left to the professionals.
Santa Cruz is home to plenty of different and fun events and attractions. With a bit of your time before or after your mole removal treatment, take a swing at one of these places!
