Skin Tag Removal

Safe and Effective Skin Tag Removal

Skin tag removal is a procedure aimed at removing benign growths of skin that commonly appear in areas such as the neck, armpits, and groin. The procedure can be done in a doctor’s office, and typically involves using a scalpel or scissors to cut off the skin tag. In some cases, a local anesthetic may be used to numb the area before the removal. Alternatively, cryotherapy or electrocautery may be used to freeze or burn off the skin tag. The procedure is generally quick and relatively painless, with minimal recovery time required. After the removal, the area may be covered with a bandage or left to heal on its own. While skin tag removal is generally considered safe, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the best course of action for your individual needs.
