What Are Skin Tags?
Skin tags, or acrochordons, are small, benign growths that typically appear in areas where the skin folds or creases, such as the neck, armpits, groin, and under the breasts. While generally harmless, they can become irritated from friction, catch on clothing or jewellery, or simply cause cosmetic concerns.

Our Skin Tag Removal Process
Initial Consultation: Your journey to smoother skin begins with an initial consultation. During this session, our specialist will assess your skin tags and discuss your medical history, concerns, and expectations. This evaluation helps us determine the most appropriate removal method for you. We believe in transparent communication, so we will explain the procedure, potential risks, and aftercare requirements in detail.
Removal Techniques: We offer several effective methods for skin tag removal, tailored to suit the size, location, and number of skin tags. Cryotherapy is the most popular method which involves freezing the skin tag with liquid nitrogen, causing it to fall off naturally after a few days. Cryotherapy is quick and generally well-tolerated, making it a popular choice for many patients.
The Procedure: The actual removal process is usually quick, often taking only a few minutes per skin tag. Here’s what you can expect during your appointment: We begin by cleaning and preparing the area around the skin tag. A local anaesthetic may be applied to numb the area and minimise discomfort. Depending on the chosen method, we will proceed with freezing, burning, tying off, or cutting the skin tag. Our skilled professionals ensure the procedure is as swift and painless as possible. Post-removal, we will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and prevent infection. This may include keeping the area clean and dry, applying an antibiotic ointment, and avoiding sun exposure.
Follow-Up: Your satisfaction and health are our top priorities. We schedule a follow-up appointment to monitor your healing progress and address any concerns you may have. Our team is always available to answer questions and provide additional support if needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Skin Tag Removal Painful? Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the removal process. Any minor pain or irritation afterwards is typically manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.
How Long Does It Take to Heal? Healing time varies depending on the removal method and individual factors. Generally, the area heals within a week or two, with proper aftercare. We will provide specific guidelines to help you achieve the best results.
Can Skin Tags Recur After Removal? While the removed skin tags do not typically return, new skin tags can develop over time, particularly in predisposed individuals. Maintaining good skin hygiene and monitoring for new growths can help manage this.
Are There Any Risks or Side Effects? Skin tag removal is generally safe when performed by experienced professionals. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks, including infection, scarring, or changes in skin pigmentation. We take every precaution to minimise these risks and ensure your safety.
