Remove Your Skin Tags with Excellent Cosmetic Results

Our skin tag removal is a simple, safe procedure by a qualified doctor using thermocoagulation. Skin tags are common as people age, can cause discomfort and self-esteem issues. The doctor will assess and use local anaesthetic during the in-clinic procedure.

What it includes

  • Assessment - A qualified doctor will assess the skin tag for the most appropriate treatment.
  • Thermocoagulation - The procedure involves using thermocoagulation, where a small electrical current is applied to the skin tag to remove it.
  • In-Clinic Procedure - The doctor carries out the removal in the clinic.
  • Local Anaesthetic - Local anaesthetic is used to minimise pain and discomfort during the procedure.

Why have your skin tags removed by Wells

  1. Pain and Discomfort Relief - Removing skin tags can eliminate any pain or discomfort they may cause, especially when snagged on clothing or jewellery.
  2. Improved Self-Esteem - Skin tags can affect self-esteem, especially when visible in prominent areas. Their removal can enhance confidence.
  3. Prevention of Irritation - Skin tags can be irritated by friction, leading to redness or inflammation. Removal helps prevent further irritation.
  4. Reduced Risk of Bleeding - Skin tags may bleed if accidentally torn. Removal decreases the risk of bleeding.
  5. Lower Risk of Infection - An open or irritated skin tag may be prone to infection. Removal reduces this risk.
  6. Enhanced Hygiene - Removing skin tags improves personal hygiene, as they may be challenging to clean around.
  7. Cosmetic Benefits - Skin tag removal can improve the appearance of the skin in affected areas.

Can skin tags grow back after removal?

Can skin tags be a sign of a more serious condition? 

Skin tags are generally harmless and not indicative of a serious medical condition. However, it's always best to have any new or changing skin growths evaluated by a healthcare professional.

How can I prevent new skin tags from forming? 

While it's challenging to prevent all skin tags, maintaining good skin hygiene and avoiding excessive friction or irritation in skin-fold areas can help reduce the risk of new tags developing.
