Discover Diathermy - Skin Lesion Removal

1. Keep Your Skin Clean & Dry

• Wash the treatment area with mild soap and water before your appointment.
• Avoid using lotions, creams, or makeup on the area.

2. Avoid Sun Exposure & Tanning

• Stay out of direct sunlight for at least 48 hours before treatment.
• Sunburned or tanned skin may be more sensitive.

3. Stay Hydrated

• Drink plenty of water to keep your skin and tissues hydrated.
• Well-hydrated skin heals faster after treatment.

4. Avoid Blood-Thinning Medications

• If possible, avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, or anticoagulants 24 hours before treatment (unless prescribed).
• This helps reduce bruising and bleeding.

5. Shave Hair (If Needed)

• If treating a hairy area, shave the area 24 hours before (but avoid waxing or plucking).

6. Do NOT Use Harsh Skincare Products

• Avoid exfoliants, retinol, AHAs, or chemical peels 3-5 days before treatment to prevent irritation.

7. Inform Your Provider About Medical Conditions

• Let them know if you have a pacemaker, metal implants, diabetes, or skin conditions that may affect the treatment.

1. Apply a Cold Compress (If Needed)

• Mild redness and swelling are normal—use an ice pack (wrapped in a cloth) to soothe the area.

2. Keep the Area Clean & Moisturized

• Wash gently with lukewarm water and mild soap.
• Use fragrance-free moisturizer or aloe vera to prevent dryness.

3. Let Scabs Heal Naturally (For Skin Lesion Removal)

• Some treated areas may form tiny scabs—do not pick or scratch them.
• Scabs will fall off naturally within 7–14 days.

4. Avoid Sun Exposure & Use Sunscreen

• Keep the area out of direct sun for at least a week.
• Use SPF 30+ to prevent hyperpigmentation.

5. Avoid Hot Showers, Saunas & Sweating

• No hot showers, saunas, or intense workouts for 24–48 hours to prevent irritation.

6. Do NOT Use Harsh Skincare Products for 3-5 Days

• Avoid exfoliants, retinol, glycolic acid, or harsh toners.

7. No Makeup on Treated Areas for 24–48 Hours

• If treated on the face, wait before applying makeup to avoid infection.

8. Avoid Smoking & Alcohol (For Healing Purposes)

• Both slow down healing and increase inflammation.

• Time: 10–60 minutes per session, depending on the size/number of lesions.

• Downtime: Minimal—some redness, scabbing, or mild swelling may occur.

• Healing Time: 7–14 days, with scabs naturally falling off.
