Skin Tag Removal

Skin tag removal is a procedure to eliminate skin tags, which are small, benign growths that often appear in areas where skin rubs against itself or clothing. Common removal methods include cutting, freezing (cryotherapy), burning (electrocautery or thermocoagulation), or tying off the base of the tag.

Skin tags are small, usually flesh-colored or slightly darker, growths that protrude from the skin's surface. They are generally harmless and often found in areas like the neck, armpits, groin, and eyelids. While not dangerous, they can be aesthetically unappealing or become irritated by clothing or jewelry.

• Cosmetic reasons: Many people choose to remove them simply because they don't like the way they look.
• Irritation: Skin tags can become irritated by rubbing against clothing or jewelry.
• Discomfort: In some cases, skin tags can be painful or cause discomfort.
