    directly injecting medication into a specific skin lesion

    Intralesional Injections, also known as Intralesional Therapy, involve directly injecting medication into a specific lesion or affected area of the skin. This targeted approach is often used to treat conditions like alopecia areata, psoriasis, and keloids, allowing for high concentrations of the drug at the site of the problem while minimizing systemic side effects.
