REMOVAL OF PEARL PULLES OF THE PENIS

What are pearly penile papules?

Pearly penile papules are small, benign lesions (angiofibromas) of flesh-colored or pearly-white color with a smooth surface and a dome-shaped or thread-like shape with a diameter of 0.5-4 mm located in one or more rows on the crown of the glans and in the sulcus retroglandularis of the penis. The papules are usually elongated or dome-shaped, pearly-flesh-colored. These lesions occur in 8-43% of men and tend to disappear spontaneously with age.

In some young men, pearly penile papules can cause psychological discomfort and are often associated with sexually transmitted diseases, especially condyloma acuminata caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Pearly penile papules increase in size during erection and may become more visible.

Pearly penile papules - where do they come from?

The cause of pearly penile papules has not been precisely diagnosed. It is considered that they are a physiological product of the epithelium. It is worth noting that pearly papules are not dangerous, contagious, or associated with any sexually transmitted disease and are not related to hygiene or sexual activity.

Due to their mild nature, non-infectiousness and lack of bothersome symptoms such as pain, itching or burning, treatment of pearly papules is not necessary. It is also not recommended to remove them using home methods, especially using liquids for the treatment of viral warts, because they can cause erosions and pain.

How to remove pearly penile papules with the Fotona Spectro SP laser

One of the methods of removing penile papules is the use of a laser due to its high effectiveness and low risk of side effects.

At the Bellazone Clinic, the procedure of removing skin lesions is always preceded by a consultation to assess the nature of the skin lesion and discuss the course of therapy with the patient.

To remove pearly penile papules at the Bellazone Clinic, we use the Fotona Spectro SP laser, whose high precision allows for the removal of skin lesions without damaging healthy tissue from delicate parts of the body such as the penis. Thanks to this, the therapy is effective, and the time needed for healing and convalescence is short.

Pearly Penile Papules can be effectively removed at our Bellazone Clinic using the Er:Yag laser from Fotona Spectro SP with a wavelength of 2940nm. Fotona Erbium lasers use this wavelength for minimally ablative, rapid treatments that remove microelements of damaged tissue, resulting in a deep thermal effect. Classic non-ablative fractional treatments leave thousands of microelements in the skin consisting of hot, dead remnants of treated tissue. Excess heat from this tissue is trapped in the skin causing unnecessary pain and discomfort. Fotona's fractional head immediately removes hot tissue remnants from the skin, reducing pain and accelerating recovery. Clean microchannels have the same thermal impact zone as microchannels after non-ablative fractional treatment, but do not cause irritation, swelling or pain. After the treatment with the fractional Fotona head, the microchannels close and heal much faster than with classic non-ablative fractional techniques. The Er:YAG Fotona Spectro SP laser achieves maximum effects with minimal depth of laser beam penetration. Spectro SP for fast, cold ablation. In XLP (extended pulse) mode, it provides the deepest thermal effects. This laser can ablate the epidermis or skin micron by micron, providing unparalleled precision and treatment control, short convalescence periods and higher patient comfort and satisfaction. At the same time, the Fotona Spectro SP, thanks to its highest power and advanced safety systems, is the fastest and safest laser on the market. The Er:YAG laser combined with innovative fractional heads allows for minimally invasive and safe treatments.

Importantly, the procedure does not leave scars, and the procedure itself does not affect the patient's sexual activity or fertility.

The beam of light precisely penetrates the skin subjected to the procedure. Under the influence of thermal energy, water evaporates bloodlessly from the epidermis and micro-holes are created, which leads to the activation of the natural regeneration and healing process. Erbium laser treatments affect only a specific area of ​​the skin, without damaging the surrounding tissues. Thanks to this, laser therapy is comfortable and does not cause troublesome skin damage or scars left after them. Pearly lumps are removed during one procedure, and after its completion, it is enough to follow the doctor's recommendations for skin care.

Pearly nodules are removed during a single treatment, and after the treatment is complete, all you need to do is follow your doctor's recommendations for skin care.

What does the Er:Yag Fotona Spectro SP laser penile papule removal procedure look like?

The pearly penile papule removal procedure is performed on an outpatient basis and usually takes no longer than 30 minutes. After applying local anesthesia, the surgeon precisely directs the laser beam to the areas requiring intervention. The procedure is virtually painless, and patients can return to their daily activities almost immediately after the procedure. Laser removal of pearly penile papules is characterized by high effectiveness and good patient tolerance - the effect is limited only to undesirable skin changes and does not damage the surrounding tissues. The procedure involves vaporization, i.e. evaporation of skin lesions, which is preceded by local anesthesia to increase the patient's comfort. After the laser removal of pearly penile papules, small scabs are visible on the skin, which fall off spontaneously within 7-10 days.

After the pearly penile papule laser removal procedure

After the procedure, there may be some slight swelling or redness at the treatment site, which usually subsides within a few days. It is important to follow the post-operative recommendations given by your doctor to ensure proper healing and optimal results.

Contraindications:

• blood clotting disorders,
• uncontrolled diabetes,
• active skin infection in the treatment area,
• infection in the urinary tract,
• skin damage (wounds) in the treatment area,
• tendency to develop keloids.

Why do we remove PEARLING LUMPS with the Er:YAG FOTONA SPECTRO SP Laser?

Fotona is a recognized world leader and pioneer in the field of innovation, development and production of telecommunications, military and medical laser systems. Fotona neodymium-yag Nd:YAG and Er:YAG lasers are modern devices that allow for a number of procedures in the field of surgery, dermatology and aesthetic medicine. The spectrum of applications is very wide, starting from laser epilation, through acne treatment, photorejuvenation, ending with the treatment of skin cancer, varicose veins removal or laser lipolysis procedures. The Spectro SP laser achieves maximum effects with a minimum depth of laser beam penetration. This laser is an ideal tool for fast, cold ablation.

Effective removal of pearly lumps:

The Fotona Nd:YAG laser with long pulses is characterized by homogeneous penetration and low absorption by tissue chromophores. These two advantages allow the Nd:YAG laser to reach deeper structures without damaging the epidermis, regardless of skin type.

Innovativeness of the Nd:YAG and Er:YAG Fotona Spectro SP lasers:

This laser has been equipped with a number of innovative solutions such as EFC (pulse feedback control) - a system that provides a previously unavailable degree of control over the energy of the laser beam pulse. Thanks to each calibration of the device, the laser always delivers a beam with precisely defined parameters, which increases the safety and effectiveness of the procedure. Another innovative feature of Fotona Spectro SP lasers is the VSP system (variable square pulse - a patent-protected solution) which allows for the generation of a pulse with specific parameters with a negligible rise and fall time of the pulse energy. This increases the efficiency of the laser beam, while improving the effectiveness and speed of treatment compared to other devices.

The safety of the Fotona Spectro SP system is:

• EFC (pulse feedback control)
  
  Thanks to this system, we avoid a drop in laser power during the procedure, which could lead to weaker or incomplete effects. We also do not have to worry about energy spikes that can cause tissue damage.
• VSP (variable square pulse)
  
  Unlike other systems, where there is a sudden energy spike and then a slow drop, in the Fotona Spectro SP system the distribution of pulse energy is even. This protects us from overheating and burning tissues. At the same time, the effectiveness and safety of the procedures are radically improved.

The effectiveness of the Fotona Spectro SP system is:

The neodymium - Jag laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm is the deepest penetrating laser beam available on the market, thanks to which it can destroy large-diameter vessels deeply hidden under the skin. At the same time, thanks to homogeneous penetration, it has a very wide range of applications and minimizes the risk of tissue damage. High power in the quasi-continuous pulse mode is 30 Watts. The competition does not even come close to Siudo this result. Thanks to this, treatments performed with the Fotona Spectro SP system are much faster and more effective. With this laser system, you can meet all the needs of patients, achieving great clinical results and unprecedented gentleness.
