Skin Tag Removal

WHAT IS a skin tag?

A skin tag is a small, soft, benign growth that typically forms in areas where the skin rubs against itself, like the neck, armpits, groin, or under the breasts. These tiny, flesh-colored or slightly darker bumps are made up of loose collagen fibers and blood vessels encased in skin. Skin tags are usually painless and non-cancerous, but they can be bothersome, especially when irritated by clothing or jewelry.

There are various skin lesions that may be misdiagnosed as a skin tag. Please see the comparison chart below. 

Please note that we only remove skin tag removals. Lesions such as warts and cutaneous horns should be assessed and potentially tested by a physician. If you are still unsure, feel free to send us a photo or contact us for more information.
