What are Skin Tags?

Very Common

Skin tags are very common, small, soft, harmless skin irregularities or growths that almost everyone will experience at some point in their life.

Safe Removal

Our technicians are trained to safely and effectively remove skin tags in-office using a variety of methods.

Not Dangerous

They’re not dangerous, but they can be very annoying, especially given that the most common places people get skin tags are the eyelids, neck, armpits, groins, and chest.

At-home risks

At-home removal is not recommended as we have seen infection, scarring, and discolouration.
