What Are Skin Tags?

Skin tags are small, benign (non-cancerous) growths that commonly appear in areas where the skin folds or experiences friction—like the neck, underarms, eyelids, groin, or under the breasts. While harmless, skin tags can become irritated or inflamed and are often removed for aesthetic reasons.

Common Reasons to Remove Skin Tags

• Discomfort from clothing or jewelry
• Skin irritation or inflammation
• Bleeding if snagged or scratched
• Cosmetic concerns, especially on the face or neck
• Peace of mind when monitoring skin changes
  
  

Professional Skin Tag Removal vs. At-Home Methods

While over-the-counter solutions exist, professional skin tag removal ensures proper diagnosis, safe technique, and minimal scarring. Our dermatology specialists can confirm that the growth is indeed a skin tag—and not something more serious—before removal.

We do not recommend at-home removal, which can lead to infection, scarring, or incomplete removal.

Skin Tag Removal Treatments We Offer

Our dermatologists may recommend one of the following treatment options based on the size and location of your skin tag:

• Cryotherapy – Freezing off the skin tag using liquid nitrogen
• Excision – Carefully cutting off the skin tag with sterile surgical tools
• Cauterization – Using heat to remove and seal the area

All procedures are quick, performed in-office, and typically require no downtime.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

1. Evaluation – We examine your skin and confirm the growth is a benign skin tag.
2. Removal – The selected removal method is performed with minimal discomfort.
3. Aftercare – We provide instructions for cleaning and healing the area. Most patients heal fully within 7–10 days.

Does Insurance Cover Skin Tag Removal?

Most insurance plans do not cover skin tag removal unless it’s medically necessary. Our office can provide a transparent out-of-pocket cost estimate during your visit.

When to See a Dermatologist

If your skin tag is growing, changing color, bleeding, or painful—don’t wait. Schedule a professional evaluation to rule out other skin conditions. Our dermatologists are experienced in diagnosing all types of skin growths.
