Skin Tags

Skin tags are small, benign growths that often appear as soft, flesh-coloured protrusions on the skin’s surface, typically in areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing.

Treatment options for skin tags may include cryotherapy, electrosurgery, ligation, or surgical removal, depending on factors such as the size, location, and number of skin tags.

Cryotherapy involves freezing the skin tags with liquid nitrogen to destroy the abnormal cells, while electrosurgery uses electrical energy to cut or burn off the growths. Surgical removal may be necessary for larger or more stubborn skin tags.

Prices for removal are discussed during you pre-operative consultation which is £75. We allocate either 15mins or 30minutes for the procedure depending on how many lesions require treatment. For this the costings are from £200 to £300 respectively.

During your consultation you will be seen by one of our doctors, who will review your skin condition/lesion and advise you on your treatment options. If it is a lesion that you would like to have removed, the risks will be discussed in depth.
