Skin Tag Removal

A skin tag is a small, soft, benign growth of skin that typically appears as a flesh-colored or slightly darker bump. Skin tag removal is a procedure to remove small, soft growths of skin that typically appear in areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing, such as the neck, underarms, or eyelids.

Some reasons are due to genetics, friction, age, hormonal etc.

Frequently asked questions

Cauterization involves using heat or an electrical current to burn off the skin tag. The heat destroys the tissue, causing the skin tag to shrink and eventually fall off. It is typically done under local anesthesia to minimize discomfort.

While the procedure can cause a mild warmth or stinging sensation during the treatment, it is typically well-tolerated. Local anesthesia may be used to numb the area and minimize discomfort during the procedure.

Skin tag removal through cauterization is generally a quick procedure that takes only a few minutes per skin tag, depending on the size and number of tags being treated.

After the procedure, the treated area may have some redness or mild swelling. A small scab may form as the skin heals, and the skin tag will fall off in a few days to a week. The healing process is typically quick and straightforward.

There is minimal downtime after cauterization. Most people can resume their normal activities immediately. However, it’s important to avoid touching or irritating the treated area and follow any aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner.

Scarring is usually minimal if proper aftercare is followed. Any scarring that occurs is typically small and fades over time. Cauterization usually doesn’t leave noticeable scars, especially when performed by a skilled professional.

The skin tag should fall off within a few days to a week after cauterization. A small scab may form at the site of the removal, and it will naturally fall off as the skin heals.

Typically, only one treatment is required to remove a skin tag. However, if you have multiple skin tags, you may need multiple treatments, though this can often be done in one session depending on the size and location.

Cauterization is generally safe, but as with any procedure, there are some risks, including mild irritation, redness, or infection at the treatment site. In rare cases, there may be scarring or changes in pigmentation, but this is uncommon when the procedure is performed correctly.
