skin spot removal - #21307

Neil

I am seriously starting to freak out about these skin spots appearing on my arms and legs. They just kinda showed up outta nowhere! At first, I thought it was like some weird sun damage from my summer vacations but now I'm not too sure. I went to a doc last week, and they said something about needing a skin spot removal, but I don't even know what that really involves. I mean, how do they do it? Is it painful? I’ve read online that there are like different methods of skin spot removal, some sound super invasive and others seem more chill. I haven't even mentioned that I'm worried about scarring, plus I've heard the skin spot removal might not even get rid of them completely. Like, what if they come back? I've also got super sensitive skin, so I'm nervous about how my body will react. Anyone else dealt with skin spot removal? What should I expect? Are there any options or tips for aftercare? Ugh, I just want these spots gone without turning my skin into a mess!
