Seborrheic Keratosis Removal

Quick removal of benign wart-like skin growths

Seborrheic keratoses are common, harmless brown or grey waxy skin growths that can be cosmetically bothersome or become irritated by clothing; removal is quick and effective using cryotherapy, curettage or laser depending on size and location.

While seborrheic keratoses are entirely benign, their appearance can cause cosmetic concern and they can sometimes be confused with more serious lesions — our dermatologist confirms the diagnosis with dermoscopy before any treatment proceeds.

Key Benefits

  • Quick, effective removal in a single session
  • Dermoscopy confirms the diagnosis first
  • Multiple techniques suited to different lesion sizes and locations
  • Permanent removal of treated lesions

Frequently Asked Questions

Will more seborrheic keratoses appear after removal?

Removed lesions do not recur, but new ones can develop elsewhere as part of the natural ageing process.

Does seborrheic keratosis removal leave a scar?

Skilled removal leaves minimal marks; slight temporary redness or lighter pigmentation is common but usually fades within a few months.
