A cosmetic electrocautery machine (or simply a cauterizer) is professional medical equipment designed for the non-surgical removal of superficial skin lesions. The device operates on the principle of coagulating protein tissues through heat generated by diathermic current passing through the skin. This alternating current has low voltage and strength but very high frequency. Besides the thermal effect, it does not have any negative impact on the tissues. During the procedure, the electrical oscillations diminish a few millimeters away from the point where the conductive element of the handpiece touches the skin.
Mechanism of action of the electrocautery machine
The electrocautery machine does not merely create a micro-burn on the skin. As a result of directed heating, the bonds between the cells of the lesion break, halting their nourishment. This makes the coagulation process irreversible. Simultaneously, the heat activates metabolism in the surrounding tissues. Immune cells rapidly move to the "hot spot" to eliminate dead cells and ensure the regeneration of healthy skin.
The electrocautery machine offers several types of conductive attachments:
- Round, triangular, or rectangular loop
- Needle
- Ball
- Spatula
The cosmetologist selects the appropriate form based on the type and size of the lesion to be removed.
In addition to devices intended solely for tissue coagulation (model T-03), the company's catalog features an innovative multipurpose device. The T-18 electrocautery machine can also remove unwanted hair. A thin needle touches the hair follicle, and the high-frequency current discharge heats and destroys the follicle instantly and irreversibly. The price of the machine corresponds to its capabilities.
Important! The electrocautery procedure requires the use of local or injectable anesthesia.
Which lesions can be removed by electrocautery machines?
Cosmetic electrocautery machines are suitable for the quick and effective removal of the following skin pathologies and defects:
- Acquired pathological structures of viral origin – condylomas, papillomas, molluscum contagiosum, etc.
- Congenital and acquired pigmented nevi
- Red vascular moles (angiomas)
- Small (up to 1 cm in diameter) atheromas, lipomas (commonly known as "fatty tumors"), and sebaceous gland hyperplasia
- Corns
These lesions can be removed not only by electrocautery but also by other methods such as laser, cryotherapy, or surgical scalpel. The final decision on the removal method is made by the doctor.
Where Are electrocautery machines used?
In the majority of cases, patients seek the removal of lesions for aesthetic reasons – moles can spoil or even disfigure the appearance, especially on the face. Indications for electrocautery include the presence of papillomas or warts in areas of constant friction. There is always a risk of benign lesions turning into malignant tumors, particularly those of dark color with many pigmented melanocyte cells. If there is a risk of malignancy, the doctor will refer the patient for a histological examination of the tissues (or it can be done directly at the clinic performing the procedure).
Advantages of electrocautery and electrocautery machines
The electrocautery procedure has several undeniable advantages over other methods of lesion removal:
- Effectiveness of the electrocautery machine: High-frequency current irreversibly denatures the protein tissues of the skin and subcutaneous layer.
- Bloodlessness: The heat generated at the skin's surface instantly seals damaged capillaries. A dry crust forms at the wound site.
- Quick recovery period: Following the cosmetologist's recommendations, the scab from the electrocautery falls off within 1-3 weeks (depending on the wound size). Scar tissue does not form, leaving the skin completely clean and fresh.
- Disinfection: All pathogenic microflora at the electrocautery site is eliminated, minimizing the risk of wound infection.
- Minimal contraindications: Except for known oncology, active acne, herpes, and intolerance to certain local anesthetics.
The final decision on whether to use an electrocautery machine, laser, or liquid nitrogen for lesion removal is made by the specialist at the cosmetic clinic.
For professional cosmetologists, especially beginners, the affordable cost of an electrocautery machine compared to lasers and cryogenic equipment is a reason to buy. The electrocautery machine is a compact tabletop device that takes up minimal space in the office and has low power consumption for the high-frequency current generator.
