Do you want to remove some of your moles, skin lesions or even out your complexion? K-Laser can be a solution to many of your skin issues, without the need for surgery or scars. Our My Genesis Clinic in Canberra is home to this new technology which allows us to achieve mole and skin tag removal with extreme precision and no anaesthesia or scars. The results could make such a difference to your practical everyday issues, like shaving or applying make up.

K-laser is an amazing new technology in which a 445nm wavelength is utilised to remove the raised tissue back to the surface of the skin, without surgery. It takes very little time to perform the K-laser treatment.
1 or 2 treatments are generally sufficient to remove the mole or lesion. Each mole usually only takes a minute or two to remove. There can be some discomfort, with a sharp stinging sensation that lasts for a few seconds with each application of the laser to the treated area, but this settles quickly and by the end of the treatment on the mole or lesion, it can barely be felt. Local anaesthetic can be used if necessary.
Most benign moles and lesions can be treated, but you require a referral letter from your doctor or skin cancer specialist to show that your moles and lesions are benign, and are suitable to be removed using K-laser. A referral must be no older than 12 months (if your Dermal Clinician or Dermal Therapist sees a spot of concern they may refer you for another assessment before agreeing to treat the lesion).
A combined initial consultation and treatment session will be booked with one of our Dermal Clinicians or Dermal Therapists, which is allocated for an hour. There is a $100 initial consultation fee, but for clients referred from Dr Taylor or 360uv, our skin check clinic, the fee is waived. If your referral is from an external skin cancer clinic or your GP, the $100 fee applies.
Other options for clients who are not suitable for K-laser may include surgical excision, punch or shave biopsy. These can be discussed with your doctor, the 360uv clinic or Dr Taylor at The CAPS Clinic. Call (02) 6282 1177 for further information, as directed by your Dermal Clinician/Therapist or GP.
