Everyone has a love for beauty, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to remove the spots that grow on your face by various means, and clinically there are indeed some series of methods to do so. There are indeed some series of clinical methods to do so, such as common drugs, chemical corrosion, surgical removal, and freezing method. Laser mole spotting But with the development of laser technology, laser mole spotting has now become the simplest and most effective new means among many cosmetic techniques. With modern laser cosmetic technology, you can remove moles while maximizing their cosmetic effects. However, laser mole spotting is not something everyone can try, and at the same time, not every mole is suitable for laser treatment. Blind mole spotting may not only fail to achieve the cosmetic effect, but may even be counterproductive. Therefore, in order to reduce the number of “potholes” and the side effects caused by improper treatment, you must do some necessary homework and learn about the contraindications of laser mole spotting before undergoing laser treatment, after all, there is no “regret medicine” in the world. People who are not suitable for laser mole spotting – Skin cancer patients: If the patient is suffering from skin cancer, laser stimulation may produce some uncontrollable consequences. – Scar body: If the patient is a more serious scar body, it is likely to leave unsightly scar after laser treatment. – Those whose skin is in the acute phase of inflammation: such as redness, swelling and pain in the area to be treated or skin ulcers. – Those who are taking medications: such as photosensitive medications as well as anticoagulants. – Those with immunodeficiency: treatment is not appropriate due to the high risk of treatment. – Those with skin lesions associated with melanoma: such as abnormal developmental nevi, malignant nevi, etc. – Special groups: such as pregnant women and women who are breastfeeding, because it is not clear whether laser mole spotting will affect the fetus, and if inflammatory symptoms such as redness, swelling and pain occur after laser mole spotting, it is difficult to use medication, which may affect breastfeeding or even the growth and development of the fetus if you are not careful. Moles that are not suitable for laser nevus – junctional nevus: Moles on the soles of the feet, toes, palms, nail beds, neck and perineum are clinically called junctional nevus. Because the nevus cells in a small number of junctional nevi have the characteristic of active proliferation and may become malignant melanoma when stimulated by the outside world, laser treatment is generally not recommended. – Moles larger than 1 cm in diameter: Moles with larger diameter are slow to heal after laser treatment and may easily leave scars. – Moles with deep pigment cells: If the pigment cells are deep, there may still be residual ones after laser mole spotting, and since it is impossible to judge 100% clearly with the naked eye, there is a possibility of recurrence. Moreover, if the pigment cells are only partially eliminated, the physical traumatic stimulation produced by mole spotting may instead damage the residual pigment cells and cause them to become malignant when repairing themselves. Although laser mole removal is a relatively safe way to improve the appearance of the face, it does have many limitations. Before choosing to undergo laser mole treatment, it is still important to carefully communicate with your doctor to avoid leaving a scar or even causing more serious consequences in order to remove a mole. After all, this is not only not gaining beauty, but also doing no harm to health, so you should always be careful. References [1] Fang Hongyuan, Xing Weibin, Zhang Bingxin, Xu Haihuan.
