Causes: Molluscum Contagiosum is a viral skin infection caused by the Molluscum Contagiosum virus (MCV). It is highly contagious and is commonly spread through direct skin-to-skin contact, as well as through contaminated objects such as towels or toys. The condition is prevalent among children but can affect individuals of any age.
Symptoms: The primary symptom of Molluscum Contagiosum is the appearance of small, raised, pearly or flesh-colored bumps on the skin. These bumps often have a central dimple or indentation. The lesions are usually painless but may become itchy or irritated.
Treatment Options: At SKINFUDGE Clinic, Dr. Burhan Hussein, MD, offers a tailored approach to Molluscum Contagiosum care, addressing the unique needs of each patient. Our program includes:
-
Topical Treatments: Learn about various topical treatments that can be applied directly to the affected areas to help eliminate the lesions. Dr. Burhan Hussein, MD, will guide you on the application process and monitor progress.
-
Cryotherapy: Explore the option of cryotherapy, a procedure where the lesions are frozen using liquid nitrogen to facilitate their removal.
-
Curettage: Understand the process of curettage, a technique involving the scraping or removal of the lesions using a small instrument.
-
Laser Therapy: Discover the benefits of laser therapy in targeting and eliminating Molluscum Contagiosum lesions.
-
Preventive Measures: Receive guidance on preventive measures to reduce the risk of spreading the virus to other areas of the body or to other individuals.

📢 Important Advisory for Patients Considering Cosmetic/Medical Procedures
Dear Valued Patients,
We believe in providing you with the best care and guidance as you consider cosmetic procedures to enhance your well-being. It is crucial for us to ensure that you are well-informed and understand the nuances of these procedures, including their limitations and potential risks. Please take a moment to read and absorb the following points:
No Guaranteed Outcomes: It is essential to comprehend that no medical treatment or surgery can be guaranteed to result in absolute benefits or complete recovery. We want to emphasize that there are no guarantees of being "cured" or achieving specific outcomes.
Informed Decision Making: Prior to undergoing any cosmetic procedure, we encourage you to educate yourself about the procedure's details, potential risks, and anticipated outcomes. This empowers you to make informed decisions aligned with your personal goals and expectations.
Risk Considerations: No procedure is entirely risk-free. All medical interventions, including cosmetic procedures, carry inherent risks. Understanding and accepting these risks is a vital part of your journey towards achieving your desired results.
Doctor's Skill and Competence: We assure you that our team possesses the necessary expertise and competence in their respective fields. We commit to applying our skills with reasonable care and competence to ensure your safety and well-being.
Timing and Emotional Well-being: Optimal results from cosmetic procedures can be influenced by emotional factors. We recommend considering the timing of your procedure, especially in relation to major life events such as relocation, job changes, bereavement, relationship changes, or the arrival of children. Emotional stability contributes positively to your overall experience.
Your health and satisfaction are our top priorities. By acknowledging these points, you are taking an active role in your journey towards self-enhancement. If you have any questions or concerns, our dedicated team is here to provide you with the guidance you need.
Thank you for trusting us with your care.
How many sessions do I require?
The healthier your skin/hair are when starting out, the easier it will take the treatment. The sessions must be spaced to allow adequate healing in between. Skin/Hair that are healthy enough to regenerate fairly quickly will be able to endure more sessions of a treatment in a shorter period of time.
While these aren’t the only factors involved, they are the most common. Don’t be surprised, however, if your doctor mentions another situation that could impact the length and/or number of sessions you may require. Every person is different, and your circumstances will be unique only to YOU.
