Your Skin, Our Priority

Worried about Scarring, Pain or Whether it’s Safe to Remove?

At TruGlow, we offer doctor-performed laser lesion removal using advanced medical-grade fractional carbon dioxide (CO₂) laser technology.

This allows for precise, controlled removal of skin lesions with minimal effect on surrounding skin, supporting safer healing and better cosmetic outcomes, especially in visible or sensitive areas.

Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Enlarged oil glands that appear as small, yellowish or skin coloured bumps, commonly on the forehead and cheeks.

Seborrhoeic Keratosis

Waxy, raised growths that may look “stuck on” the skin surface, often increasing with age.

Benign Skin Bumps / Skin Tags

Benign raised growths that commonly develop in areas of friction such as the neck, underarms or body folds.

Milia seeds

Small white or skin coloured cysts that form under the skin, often around the eyes and cheeks.

Who is the ideal candidate for CO2 Laser Treatment

If unsure whether your lesion is benign - our doctor will assess and advise appropriately before any treatment is performed.

CO₂ laser treatment is ideal for individuals with benign skin lesions seeking precise removal and predictable healing. Suitability depends on lesion type, size and location, and all cases are assessed individually to ensure safe and appropriate treatment.

Patients should be in generally good skin health, without active infection in the treatment area. A personalised assessment is always conducted to determine suitability and the most appropriate treatment approach.

Doctor’s Clinical Insight

Our doctor shares why fractional CO₂ laser technology allows for more precise lesion removal compared to traditional electrocautery. By targeting only the lesion and minimising heat spread to surrounding tissue, the treatment supports controlled depth, minimal collateral heat damage, and a more predictable cosmetic outcome.

Post treatment care, including antibiotic ointment, Mela B3 Serum and appropriate sun protection, plays an important role in reducing post inflammatory redness and supporting smoother recovery.

Understanding Care at TruGlow

Frequently Asked Questions

All lesions are carefully assessed by our doctor before any removal is performed.

If a lesion appears suspicious or requires further evaluation, we will advise appropriately before proceeding. Patient safety and accurate diagnosis always come first.

With doctor-performed fractional CO₂ laser treatment and proper aftercare, the risk of scarring is low. The laser allows controlled depth and minimises heat spread to surrounding skin, supporting more predictable healing. Following aftercare and avoiding picking are important to reduce post-treatment marks.

A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure to enhance comfort.

Most patients describe the sensation as mild warmth or minimal discomfort. Sensitivity varies slightly depending on treatment area and individual skin response.

Downtime varies depending on the treatment area, individual skin type, sensitivity, sun exposure and adherence to aftercare instructions.

  • First 1–2 days: redness
  • Following days: small scabs form
  • Scabs usually fall off in 5–10 days
  • Mild pinkness may remain 1–3 weeks

⚠️ It is important not to pick or scratch the treated area as this may affect healing and cosmetic outcomes.

Recurrence depends on the type of lesion.
Skin Tags
Once completely removed, skin tags typically do not grow back in the same spot. However, individuals prone to friction areas may develop new ones over time.
Seborrhoeic Keratosis
These usually do not recur once fully removed, though new lesions may develop gradually with age.
Sebaceous Hyperplasia
While treated lesions can be effectively reduced, patients with oil-prone skin may develop new ones in the future.
Milia
Once extracted or ablated, the same milia usually does not return, but new milia can form depending on skin type and product use.
We will guide you on proper skincare, sun protection and preventive strategies to help reduce the likelihood of future recurrence.

Most benign lesions can be treated in 1–2 sessions.

Larger, thicker or deeper lesions may require up to 3 sessions for optimal cosmetic results. A personalised recommendation will be provided after assessment.

Our pricing is transparent:

    • From S$100 + GST per lesion
    • Palm-sized areas from S$300 + GST

Final cost depends on lesion size, thickness, number and location. A clear quotation will be provided before proceeding.

Proper aftercare supports smoother healing:

    • First 7 days: Apply antibiotic ointment 2–3 times daily
    • Next 14 days: Use healing gel as advised
    • From week 3: Introduce a niacinamide-based serum to help reduce post-inflammatory redness
    • Strict sun protection is essential

Our team will guide you through each stage of recovery.
