What are Skin Tags?
Skin tags are common, non-cancerous growths that often appear as people age. They are connected to the skin by a stalk and are commonly found in the underarms, around the neck, eyelids, under the breasts, groin, and thighs.
Although they are not dangerous and do not require removal, they can be unsightly and irritating.
How are Skin Tags Diagnosed?
An exam by a dermatologist is frequently all that is needed.
What are the Treatment Options for Skin Tags?
Minor surgical removal
Electrosurgery
Freezing with liquid nitrogen
What Can You Expect?
Before any procedure, you will have a consultation with our expert cosmetic dermatologists. The physician will listen to you, perform a thorough evaluation, and provide an individualized treatment plan to address your needs and concerns.
Any unsightly or irritating skin tag can be removed with almost no downtime. Most patients can resume normal activities the next day. Because skin tags are benign (non-cancerous) growths, insurance companies often do not cover their removal. Often, there is an out-of-pocket cost for the removal of skin tags that is not covered by insurance.
Is the Treatment of Skin Tags Safe?
All procedures carry some risk. However, complications from skin tag treatment procedures are uncommon when performed by board-certified cosmetic dermatologists.
