What are skin tags?

  • Skin tags are common, skin-colored, soft bumps that tend to hang off the skin. Dermatologists can remove them by using cryotherapy (freezing) or by sterile scissors, depending on size and treatment area. 
  • Treatment areas: throughout the body, commonly around the neck, in the armpits or in the groin area.

Top reasons for considering removal of skin tags?

  • If your skin tags are causing any symptoms, such as itching, pain or bleeding, consider getting them removed by a dermatologist. 
  • Patients will also get them removed if they are getting caught on clothing, jewelry or are unsightly. 

What is the benefit of removing skin tags? 

  • The skin tag will be removed and no longer bothersome to the patient. 

Recovery process after removing skin tags:

  • It is a very minimal recovery process, depending on the type of removal. With cryotherapy or freezing, you can expect the area to crust, then fall off in 1-2 weeks. A blister may form at the treatment site in the first few days. 
  • If scissors are used to remove the lesions (larger skin tags), then a very small sore can be expected to heal with Vaseline over the course of a few weeks. 
  • Talk to your provider about important safety information prior to your treatment, as well as any post-treatment instructions.
