At the Florida Skin Cancer Institute, we’re dedicated to offering advanced, compassionate care for our patients. When it comes to addressing precancerous skin lesions, including actinic keratosis, we offer two powerful treatments: Cryosurgery and Red Light Photodynamic Therapy (PDT). Each treatment serves unique purposes in targeting and managing skin conditions while focusing on patient comfort and well-being. We are the only center in the area with FDA approved Red Light PDT!
Cryosurgery: Precision for Individual Lesions
Cryosurgery is a targeted procedure that uses extreme cold to remove individual precancerous lesions. This effective treatment is ideal for isolated areas of damaged skin. By freezing these lesions, Cryosurgery destroys abnormal cells with minimal discomfort, promoting the growth of healthy skin. Our skilled team carefully monitors and customizes each treatment to achieve optimal results for every patient.
Red Light Photodynamic Therapy (PDT): Comprehensive Care for Larger Areas
For more extensive involvement, such as covering larger skin areas or entire regions like the face, Red Light PDT offers an effective solution. This non-invasive procedure involves applying a light-activated solution to the skin, followed by the application of our medical-grade red light device. The Ameluz with BF-RhodoLED is the first and only combination product for PDT, FDA-approved for field-directed treatment of actinic keratoses on the face and scalp. This powerful FDA class III device—unique to professional medical use—activates the solution to selectively target and treat abnormal cells across the skin field, helping to reduce precancerous lesions, enhance skin health, leading to smoother skin for improved cosmetic results as well.
