Plexr Mole / Skin Tag / Blemish Removal

Service Description

WHAT IT IS Plexr is a plasma device. It ionises the gas in the air just above the skin to create a tiny plasma arc, which sublimates a microscopic point of the surface tissue without ever touching the skin and without transmitting heat to the surrounding area. The treated points contract immediately, tightening the skin between them, and healing over the following days produces further collagen. Used to remove raised benign lesions — skin tags, seborrhoeic keratoses, benign raised moles and small blemishes — point by point, with no cutting and no stitches. Priced from £99 depending on the number, size and site of the lesions. WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE IT It removes lesions precisely with minimal disruption to the surrounding skin, and because there is no incision there is no suture line to heal. For small facial lesions, the cosmetic outcome is usually better than excision. WHAT WE AIM FOR Clean removal of the lesion with the best available cosmetic result and no surgical scar.

No — and this matters. A pigmented lesion must be properly assessed before any removal, because destroying a lesion without examining it removes the ability to diagnose it. If there is any suspicious feature, Dr Selvi will not treat it with Plexr and will arrange appropriate assessment or referral instead. Dermatoscopy or ultrasound assessment may be recommended first. Why is the price 'from' £99? Because it depends on how many lesions there are and their size and location. Dr Selvi will quote you an exact figure at consultation, before anything is done. Can the lesion come back? Skin tags and keratoses removed properly do not usually return in the same place, though new ones can develop elsewhere if you are prone to them. What does the healing actually look like? Small dark carbon crusts form at each treated point within minutes. They stay for five to seven days and then fall away on their own. They must not be picked, scratched or covered with make-up — picking is the main cause of marking and it is entirely avoidable. How much swelling should I expect? Around the eyes, considerable. Swelling typically peaks on day two or three and can be enough that you would not want to be seen. It settles from day four. Plan a week away from anything social. Is it painful? Strong numbing cream is applied for around 30 to 45 minutes beforehand and most patients tolerate the treatment well. Afterwards it feels like mild sunburn for a day. Will it leave a mark? Uncommon when aftercare is followed properly. There may be temporary pinkness for a few weeks after the crusts fall. Post-inflammatory pigmentation is a genuine risk in richly pigmented skin — Dr Selvi will assess your skin type and advise honestly whether Plexr is appropriate for you. What is the aftercare? Keep the area clean and dry, do not pick the crusts, use only the products Dr Selvi provides or recommends, no make-up until the crusts have gone, and strict SPF 50 for at least three months afterwards. The sun protection is not optional. Who will treat me? All treatments at Dr Selvi Clinic are carried out by a doctor, following a face-to-face consultation and an assessment of your suitability.
