Healing with potion corrosion is now largely obsolete.
Although caustic therapy is simple and inexpensive, and has been used to treat pigmented nevi, the process of caustic treatment itself is also a malignant trauma stimulus to the tissue, which can induce malignant transformation.
In addition, the corrosive agent itself and the treatment process are difficult to control, and it is easy to damage excessively and may damage other normal skin. If it is not handled well, it is more likely to leave scars.
In addition, histopathological examination cannot be performed after corrosion treatment, and it is easy to miss pigmented moles that have changed.
“Youth with moles” who have cosmetic needs can choose surgery, laser, freezing and other methods for treatment.
Surgery is often used to treat large or malignant pigmented nevus, and pathological examination can be performed at the same time as the removal of pigmented nevus; laser, cryotherapy and other treatment methods are mainly used for Superficial pigmented nevi.
