Intralesional Therapies

Intralesional therapies involve injecting medications directly into a skin lesion or growth, such as a wart or tumor. This targeted approach delivers the treatment straight to the problem area, enhancing effectiveness while minimizing side effects elsewhere in the body. Commonly used for conditions like warts, certain skin cancers, and keloids, these therapies can stimulate the immune system to attack the lesion or deliver drugs that destroy abnormal tissue. They are often performed in a doctor's office and are valued for their precision and ability to treat difficult or resistant cases.
