SuperFrecator
High Frequency Cauterizing
Permanent Removal of Skin Growths
The SuperFrecator is a cauterization machine that has been successfully used for over 30 years by skin care professionals to remove all types of common surface skin growths. Skin growths are accumulations of various types of cells that look different than the surrounding skin. They may be raised or flat and range in color from dark brown or black to flesh-colored to red. Skin growths may be present at birth or develop later.
The Technology
The machine uses a high-frequency electrical current that delivers a precise spark through a micro-needle to cauterize and desiccate skin growths. During the procedure the micro-needle remains above the skin surface; it does not penetrate the skin. As the growth is removed, a natural protective coating or scab develops that covers the treated area. With in the next few days, the scab will fall off and be replaced by healthy new skin cells, the color of the surrounding skin tissue. In most cases, there is no visible indication of the previous growth.
How does it differ from Liquid Notrogen?
The SuperFrecator 6800 Series is generally more effective than liquid nitrogen in removing skin growths. Frequently, more than one application of liquid nitrogen is needed to remove a growth, whereas only one SuperFrecator treatment is ever necessary.

The Sessions
The number of sessions depends on the area to be treated and most areas can be treated in one session. Once a skin growth has been treated with the SuperFrecator, it does not return. However, if your skin is prone to these types of grows, new ones may appear elsewhere on your face and body.
The Duration
Treatment time may vary depending on the area and your unique skin concerns. However, most treatments are completed within 15-30 minutes. If receiving more than one treatment, we recommend booking 4-6 weeks in between treatments.
The Downtime
As the growth is removed, a natural protective coating or scab develops that covers the treated area. With in the next few days, the scab will fall off and be replaced by healthy new skin cells, the color of the surrounding skin tissue. In most cases, there is no visible indication of the previous growth. It is very important that you do not scratch or pick at the scab during it’s healing process.

To ensure you are a candidate, a consultation is required before booking your session.
