Lesion Removal - Fordyce Spots Granules
Benefits
Fordyce spots are normal and symptomless and are commonly seen on mucosal surfaces such as
- Inside the mouth on the cheek lining
- Lips, which may involve both the inside and outside surfaces near the corners of the mouth
- Shaft, foreskin and head of the penis, and on the scrotum
- Labia of the vagina
Considerations
PDT usually requires 2-4 treatments scheduled one month apart, with each treatment reducing the spots progressively. It is a completely non-invasive treatment option. Maintenance treatments will be required.
There is no downtime with PDT.
The other treatments are aimed at removing the individual lesions, so have the potential for long term reduction. However, you may need to have further treatment if new lesions develop in time or if some of the treated lesions fail to disappear completely or regrow (most, however, do not regrow).
The other treatments will result in some crusting of the treated lesions, which will heal in a week or so.
