get rid of unwanted moles, warts, skin tags + more

Dr. Vafa in Soho, NYC specializes in scar-free mole removal using state-of-the-art Radiosurgery technology. If you're looking for a safe, effective, and non-invasive solution to get rid of lesions (including moles, warts, skin tags, papules and more) while leaving no visible scars, you're in the right place.

why choose radiosurgery?

Radiosurgery is a cutting-edge technique that uses high-frequency radio waves to precisely and gently remove moles and other skin lesions. It offers several advantages over traditional surgical methods, including:

1. scar-free results

Radiosurgery minimizes tissue damage, leaving little to no scarring, which is especially important for highly visible areas like the face.

2. minimal discomfort

Patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, and only require local anesthesia.

3. quick recovery

With Radiosurgery, recovery time is shorter compared to traditional excision methods because the area is cauterized immediately.

4. precision

 Dr. Vafa's expertise, combined with Radiosurgery's precise nature, ensures that moles are removed with utmost accuracy, reducing the risk of regrowth, and eliminating the possibility of damage to the surrounding tissue.

the science behind radiosurgery

Radiosurgery is a technology used to treat a variety of soft tissue conditions, from the skin to deeper tissues. He uses the latest technology to ensure safe and effective removal of moles, warts and skin lesions. Instead of using a scalpel, radio waves do the cutting.

Radiosurgery technology is somewhat similar to laser or electro-surgery, but it uses a different part of the electromagnetic spectrum than either. Instead of using light waves (like laser), and instead of using high-temperature, low-frequency waves (such as with electro-surgery), radiosurgery uses low-temperature, high-energy waves in the radio bandwidth.

The low-temperature waves used by radiosurgery means that tissues are not burned like they are with electro-surgery. Radiosurgery high energy waves penetrate much less deeply into peripheral tissue (0.02 mm) than CO2 laser (0.5 mm), Holmium laser (0.05 mm), or electro surgery (1.0 mm) units. The benefit to patients is that there is substantially less peripheral tissue destruction (by a factor of 25x compared to laser and by a factor of 50x compared to electro surgery). Less peripheral damage to tissues means much greater precision and significantly faster healing times. Simply put, radiosurgery is an extremely precise way to perform surgery, creating much less trauma to surrounding tissues than other technologies. We use the latest technology to ensure safe and effective removal of moles, warts and skin lesions. Radiosurgery effectively removes lesions present on any part of your body. Dr. Vafa has been using the Radio-Wave Surgery method for lesion removal for over 16 years.
