Skin tags are benign lesions that can be removed for aesthetic reasons. They may snag or aggravate patients and affect self confidence.

Skin tags can be removed by

Excision– surgical removal under local anaesthetic. The skin tag is removed using a scalpel, leaving only a small white/pink scar.

Cryotherapy– locally applied freezing therapy that employs liquid nitrogen gas to freeze the target area. The cold temperature blocks blood supply to the area and causes it to fall off.
