The removal of warts, moles, and skin tags in Las Vegas is becoming more common. With the use of radio frequency machines, it is easier to remove them than ever, especially in places such as Las Vegas, NV. We use a radio frequency machine to remove warts, moles, and solar keratoses (which are sun spots and age spots) and also for the removal of legions. However, if it’s pre-cancerous, we refer them to a dermatologist for removal and biopsy. It’s the easiest procedure available, and is practically pain-free.

I suggest that if you have moles, warts, skin tags, sun spots or age spots (solar keratoses) that you want removed you should go to a medical spa that has the ability to remove it by radio frequency. It is a very easy procedure – after a little lidocaine (which is a local anesthesia) the warts and moles are removed from the Las Vegas patient and gone within seconds.

In fact, this direct supervision by a licensed medical professional is the key distinction between a medical spa and a day spa.

Additionally, while some medical spas do have the oversight of a medical professional, many of these professionals are providers who have no formal training in the care of the skin and the anatomy of the face such as family physicians, gynecologists and eye doctors. At Benedetti Cosmetic Surgery, I provide direct supervision of my certified medical aesthetician as well as providing many of the services myself to maximize safety and results.
