Skin Tag Removal

Skin tags are small, brown or flesh-coloured growths that protrude from the surface of the skin. They can be found anywhere on the skin but are typically found in areas where the skin rubs against itself. Though generally harmless and nothing to worry about they are aesthetically unappealing and can rub on clothing causing irritation.

Treatment is quick and easy, with a range of removal options available, Cryotherapy, Thermocoagulation therapy via Veinwave, Ligation in which the end of the tag is tied off, interrupting its blood supply and causing it to fall off.

Tags can also be surgically removed with a scalpel. You will be seen as an outpatient and be able to go home following the procedure. All these treatments are carried out under a local anaesthetic and are expertly removed. There will be a small white scar where the skin tag has been removed. Post treatment advice and follow up will be given.
