We have used ultrasonic surgical aspirator to treat several skin diseases such as Bowen’s disease, wart, prurigo nodularis, and osmidrosis. The ultrasonic surgical aspirator offers an effective and safe method to treat them with few complications. We expect several other skin diseases could likely be cured using ultrasonic surgical aspirator by accumulating additional cases.展开更多
