Excision & Suture (Dermatosurgery) | Indian Skin Hair Clinic

Advanced Dermatosurgery for Safe, Precise, and Aesthetic Skin Care

At Indian Skin Hair Aesthetics Skin Clinic, we offer advanced Excision & Suture dermatosurgical procedures to safely remove unwanted, abnormal, or medically concerning skin lesions. Moreover, our clinic combines medical expertise, modern technology, and aesthetic precision to ensure optimal healing with minimal scarring.

Excision and suture is a minor surgical dermatology procedure performed to remove skin growths completely and close the wound with fine sutures. As a result, it provides both medical safety and cosmetic satisfaction. Most importantly, the procedure is performed under strict sterile conditions by experienced dermatology professionals.

What Is Excision & Suture in Dermatosurgery?

Excision & suture is a dermatosurgical technique where a skin lesion is surgically removed using a scalpel, followed by careful stitching of the wound. In contrast to non-surgical treatments, excision ensures complete removal of the lesion, which significantly reduces the risk of recurrence.

Furthermore, this procedure is often recommended when:

The lesion is deep or large
There is a suspicion of malignancy
Biopsy or histopathological examination is required
Cosmetic precision is important

Therefore, excision & suture remains one of the most reliable procedures in dermatosurgery

Conditions Treated with Excision & Suture

At Indian Skin Hair Aesthetics Skin Clinic, excision and suture is commonly performed for a wide range of skin conditions. These include:

✔ Moles (Benign & Suspicious Nevi)

Although many moles are harmless, some require removal due to size, color change, or cosmetic concerns. Hence, excision ensures complete and safe removal.

✔ Skin Tags

While small skin tags can be treated non-surgically, larger or multiple skin tags often require excision for permanent results.

✔ Sebaceous Cysts

Sebaceous cysts frequently recur if not removed entirely. Therefore, excision with suturing is the gold standard treatment.

✔ Lipomas

Lipomas are soft fatty growths that may cause discomfort or cosmetic issues. As a result, surgical excision is often recommended.

✔ Warts & Benign Tumors

In cases where warts are resistant to other treatments, excision becomes an effective option.

✔ Suspicious or Cancerous Lesions

Early excision plays a crucial role in diagnosing and treating skin cancer. Additionally, removed tissue is sent for biopsy.

Why Choose Excision & Suture Over Other Treatments?

While lasers, cautery, and radiofrequency are effective for superficial lesions, excision & suture offers distinct advantages.

Firstly, it allows complete lesion removal.
Secondly, it provides tissue for histopathological examination.
Moreover, it significantly lowers the risk of recurrence.
Finally, with expert suturing, scarring is minimized.

Thus, excision & suture is often the preferred method for deeper or suspicious skin growths.

Excision & Suture Procedure – Step-by-Step

Understanding the procedure helps reduce anxiety. Therefore, at our clinic, we ensure transparency at every stage.

1. Detailed Consultation & Evaluation

Initially, our dermatologist examines the lesion thoroughly. Additionally, medical history and skin type are evaluated.

2. Local Anesthesia

Next, local anesthesia is administered. As a result, the procedure is completely painless.

3. Precise Surgical Excision

Then, the lesion is carefully excised with a surgical blade. Importantly, surrounding healthy tissue is preserved.

4. Expert Suturing

After removal, the wound is closed with fine sutures, ensuring proper alignment for better healing.

5. Dressing & Post-Procedure Care

Finally, a sterile dressing is applied, and aftercare instructions are explained clearly.

Post-Procedure Care & Recovery

Proper aftercare is essential for optimal healing. Therefore, we guide every patient carefully.

Keep the area clean and dry
Avoid excessive stretching of the treated area
Apply prescribed ointments regularly
Attend follow-up visits for suture removal
Protect the area from sun exposure

Typically, healing occurs within 7–14 days, depending on the location and size of the excision. Moreover, scars gradually fade with proper care.

Scar Management & Cosmetic Outcomes

At Indian Skin Hair Aesthetics Skin Clinic, we focus not only on treatment but also on aesthetic outcomes. Hence, our dermatologists use:

Fine cosmetic sutures
Minimal tension closure techniques
Advanced scar-reduction protocols

Additionally, we may recommend silicone gels, scar creams, or laser scar reduction, if required. Consequently, patients enjoy smooth healing with minimal visible scars.

Is Excision & Suture Safe?

Yes, excision & suture is a safe and well-established dermatosurgical procedure. When performed by trained professionals, complications are rare. However, like any minor surgery, mild swelling, redness, or temporary discomfort may occur. Nevertheless, strict hygiene, sterile techniques, and expert care significantly reduce risks.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Excision & Suture?

You may be a suitable candidate if:

You have a growing or changing skin lesion
You require biopsy confirmation
You want permanent removal of a lesion
You prefer a one-time definitive treatment

However, during consultation, our dermatologist will determine the best approach tailored to your needs.

Excision & Suture for Medical & Cosmetic Purposes

Excision & suture is not limited to medical needs alone. In fact, many patients choose it for cosmetic reasons, such as removing visible moles or cysts from the face, neck, or exposed areas. Therefore, whether your concern is health-related or appearance-focused, our clinic ensures the best possible outcome.
