Welcome to Parkwood Skin Clinic, your trusted skin cancer clinic on the Gold Coast, where we provide treatments for a variety of skin conditions, including lumps, bumps, and skin tags. Our experienced team is dedicated to offering you personalised and effective treatments in a comfortable and professional environment.
Benign skin growths, such as lumps and bumps, are common and can make individuals feel self-conscious about their appearance. At our clinic, we provide a thorough assessment to accurately identify and understand these growths, sometimes using ultrasound to gain deeper insights into their structure. Our experienced doctor will carefully explain the findings and discuss a range of treatment options, from surgical excision to non-surgical methods, ensuring the approach aligns with your comfort and aesthetic goals. With personalised guidance through every option, we aim to restore confidence and comfort by providing expert, compassionate care.
Skin tags are small, soft growths that typically develop on areas where the skin rubs against itself, such as the neck, armpits, and eyelids. While harmless, they can be bothersome or affect appearance, leading many people to seek removal. Treatment for skin tags is straightforward and minimally invasive, with several options available, including cryotherapy (freezing), cauterisation (burning), and excision (cutting). These treatments are quick, generally require no downtime, and are performed with precision to ensure minimal discomfort. Our team provides safe and effective skin tag removal tailored to your needs, restoring smooth, clear skin with ease.
Cryotherapy is an effective, minimally invasive treatment for benign skin lesions, such as warts, skin tags, and certain types of harmless bumps. This procedure uses liquid nitrogen to freeze the targeted tissue, causing it to gradually dry up and fall off, often within a few days to weeks. Cryotherapy is quick, with minimal discomfort and typically no downtime, making it a convenient option for those seeking a non-surgical solution.
Cautery is an effective method for treating benign skin lesions, such as skin tags, small moles, and other non-cancerous growths. This technique uses controlled heat to remove the lesion, sealing the tissue in the process, which minimises bleeding and promotes quick healing. Cautery is a precise and relatively painless procedure, typically performed with local anaesthesia to ensure patient comfort. It’s a quick, non-invasive solution that leaves minimal scarring, allowing for smooth skin and an improved appearance.
Laser treatment is a precise and effective option for removing benign skin lesions, such as warts, age spots, and skin tags. Using focused light energy, the laser targets the lesion, gently removing or vaporizing the tissue with minimal impact on the surrounding skin. This approach offers a quick recovery and typically involves little to no discomfort, as it is minimally invasive and doesn’t require stitches. Laser treatment is ideal for patients seeking a non-surgical option with minimal scarring and downtime. Our team utilizes advanced laser technology to ensure safe, effective removal of benign lesions, leaving your skin smooth and clear.
Surgical excision is a reliable method for removing benign skin lesions, such as moles, cysts, and lipomas, especially when precise removal is needed. During this procedure, the lesion and a small margin of surrounding tissue are carefully cut away under local anaesthesia, ensuring complete removal and minimising the chance of recurrence. Surgical excision allows for the lesion to be examined histologically, providing a thorough analysis if needed. While this approach may leave a small scar, it is often recommended for larger or deeper lesions where other treatments may be less effective.
