Dr. Tel-Oren ("Dr. T")

• Cut too deeply (or widely) to be assured they "got it all", often leaving unsightly scars in the skin, while causing a local inflammatory response that increases the the risk for cancer or

• Not go deep enough leaving the roots behind, with a high likelihood of regrowing (as well as causing inflammation).

Either way, the lesion may be lacerated during the procedure, allowing cancer (if already present) to enter the vascular system and perhaps take root elsewhere in the body. If cancer if not yet present, the tissue trauma causes an inflammatory response, which may stimulate cancerous growth within an already-suspicious lesion or a benign lesion.

Even a biopsy of s suspicious lesion increases the risk of inflammation within it, or the risk of spreading already-present cancerous cells into the circulation and to other organs in the body.

Dr. Tel-Oren's method, employed by certified, licensed physicians in many states and countries, can remove unwanted skin growths and blemishes (even small, flat, dark-pigmented nevi that can lead to melanoma) much more safely and esthetically, with minimal pain (slight stinging which lasts just a few minutes) and non-surgically.

This method eliminates the guessing about the depth of the lesion (or the presence of roots underneath it). When the top layer falls off, it is easy to see hidden roots and treat them in the same non-invasive manner, until complete removal has been achieved. Most lesions can be removed completely within one treatment, some within two. Three is rare!
