Quick and Painless Treatment at Skin by Dr. Nancy

Skin tags are small, soft, non-cancerous growths that commonly appear on areas where the skin folds, such as the neck, underarms, eyelids, and groin. While harmless, they can become irritating or cosmetically undesirable. At Skin by Dr. Nancy, we offer safe, effective, and painless skin tag removal treatments tailored to your needs.

Our dermatologists use advanced techniques to remove skin tags with minimal discomfort and no scarring, restoring smooth and healthy skin.

What Are Skin Tags?

Skin tags (acrochordons) are benign skin growths composed of collagen and blood vessels. They often develop due to friction, hormonal changes, or genetics. Although they are not dangerous, they may cause discomfort or aesthetic concerns, especially if located on visible areas of the body.

Common Areas Where Skin Tags Appear

Skin tags can develop anywhere on the body but are most commonly found in areas with friction, including:

  • Neck
  • Underarms
  • Eyelids
  • Groin and inner thighs
  • Under the breasts
  • Face and back

Skin Tag Removal Methods We Offer

1. Electrocautery (Burning Method)

Electrocautery is a highly effective procedure that uses a small electrical current to burn off the skin tag while sealing blood vessels to prevent bleeding. Benefits include:

  • Quick and precise removal
  • Minimal discomfort
  • Little to no scarring

2. Cryotherapy (Freezing Method)

Cryotherapy uses liquid nitrogen to freeze the skin tag, causing it to dry up and fall off within a few days. This method is ideal for:

  • Small to medium-sized skin tags
  • Painless and fast healing
  • Minimal risk of infection

3. Surgical Excision (Cutting Method)

Excision involves carefully cutting off the skin tag using sterile surgical tools. This method is recommended for:

  • Large or multiple skin tags
  • Immediate removal with no waiting period
  • Guaranteed complete removal

4. Laser Skin Tag Removal

Laser therapy is an advanced technique that removes skin tags using concentrated light energy. It is best suited for:

  • Delicate areas like the face and eyelids
  • Precise removal with minimal impact on surrounding skin
  • Minimal downtime and fast healing
