What Is Skin Tag Removal Treatment?

Skin tags are small, harmless growths that typically develop on the neck, armpits, eyelids, and other parts of the body where skin creases or folds. Although skin tags are usually harmless, they can be unsightly and occasionally cause discomfort or irritation when they rub against clothing or jewellery.

How are Skin Tags Removed?

Various methods for removing skin tags include cryotherapy, surgical excision, and electrocautery. In cryotherapy, the skin tags are frozen with liquid nitrogen and removed. Surgical excision involves cutting the skin tag with a scalpel or scissors, and electrocautery uses a heated wire or needle to burn the skin tag off.

In some cases, laser surgery may also remove skin tags. Carbon dioxide lasers are typically used for this procedure. The laser cuts off the skin tag while under the effects of local anesthesia. The laser cauterize the blood vessels as it cuts, so there is usually minimal bleeding or scarring.

Why Is It Important to Get Skin Tags Removed?

Skin tags are harmless, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with them. Whether they are getting caught on clothing or simply bothering you aesthetically, skin tag removal can be a quick and simple fix with long-term comfort. Here’s why it’s worth considering:

• They can become irritated from friction with clothing or jewelry
• Some may grow larger over time, making them more noticeable
• Removing them helps improve the skin’s appearance and smoothness
• They may interfere with shaving or everyday grooming
• Getting them checked helps rule out other skin concerns
• Professional removal minimizes the risk of scarring or infection

Benefits of Skin Tag Removal

Removing skin tags isn’t just about looks, it can actually improve your skin’s health and comfort. Here’s what you can expect from a safe, in-clinic removal:

• Quick, non-invasive procedure with minimal discomfort
• Immediate improvement in skin texture and clarity
• Boosts confidence, especially if tags are in visible areas
• No downtime—return to your routine right away
• Low risk of recurrence when removed professionally
• Personalized approach to suit your skin type and sensitivity

Before Care

• Ensure that the skin around the skin tag is healthy and intact.
• Avoid taking aspirin or other blood thinners for at least 48 hours before the scheduled treatment.
• On the day of the treatment, do not apply any makeup or other cosmetics to the area that will be treated.

Treatment

• A doctor will consult with you before removing skin tags.
• The doctor examines the skin tag you want to remove and decides which removal method is best.
• The most effective removal method is also the safest and produces positive results. Most skin tags can be removed without the need for local anaesthesia. However, if you have larger growths, it may be necessary to use local anaesthesia. Multiple skin tags may require the application of a topical anaesthetic cream before the procedure.
• The tags will be frozen with liquid nitrogen, and then they will be taken off with the help of local anaesthesia. Your doctor might also employ procedures like electric cautery and desiccation to burn skin tags. This procedure might need to be repeated several times to remove them permanently.
• These days, laser surgery is used to eliminate skin tags. Carbon dioxide lasers are used to cut off skin tags while the person is under local anaesthesia.

After Care

• Keep the treated area dry and clean to avoid infection.
• Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area.
• Apply antibiotic cream to the treated area as instructed by the doctor.
• Cover the treated area with a sterile dressing if necessary.
• Avoid exposing the treated area to direct sunlight.
• If stitches are required, follow the doctor's instructions on how to care for the wound and the stitches.
• Do not scratch or pick at the treated area to prevent scarring.
• Contact the doctor immediately if there is any redness, swelling, or pain.
