The recovery time varies from person to person depending upon the complexity of the procedure and healing response of the patient’s body.
Curettage:
Before undergoing it, talk to an expert and discuss all the facets of the treatment. In this technique, skin growths are scraped off by utilizing a spoon-shaped tool, a curette. Sometimes, the surgeons perform this procedure along with electrosurgery to get the best possible results. Because it is a minor surgical procedure so fuller recovery can take up to 7-14 days. Do not try this method at home because it can lead to infection and other serious complications.
Electrocautery:
