Thermocoagulation Surrey, BC
Quick Guide
A quick guide explaining how thermocoagulation works, what it treats, and what to expect during treatment.
Thermocoagulation is a precise, non-invasive cosmetic treatment used to remove minor skin lesions safely and effectively. Using a fine probe and controlled radiofrequency current, the treatment targets the lesion while protecting surrounding skin.
It is commonly used for skin tags, seborrheic keratosis, cherry angiomas, milia, broken capillaries, brown spots, cholesterol deposits, and filiform warts. The procedure is quick, minimally uncomfortable, and allows natural skin regeneration over a few weeks.

How the Procedure Works
During the session:
-
The lesion is examined and prepped.
-
A medical-grade, Health Canada-approved device is used with a fine probe.
-
Controlled radiofrequency current generates heat to coagulate tissue.
-
The treated area forms a small scab that naturally falls off within 7–10 days.
Most treatments are short, minimally invasive, and can be performed on multiple small lesions in one session.
⚠️ Not all devices are created equal. Using professional, certified equipment ensures safety, precision, and optimal results.
