What is Skin Tag Removal?
Skin tag removal is a procedure in the field of dermatology where doctors remove small, soft growths of skin called “skin tags,” or “acrochordons,” which occur on the neck, eyelids, under the armpits, and in other places where two parts of the body rub against each other.
Though they are harmless growths of skin, people usually prefer to remove them, as they are usually irritated and uncomfortable.
Dermatologists can safely remove skin tags with quick medical procedures without causing any harm or damage to the skin tag and the area where it is present.
WHY DO SKIN TAGS DEVELOP?
Usually, skin tags develop in those places where the skin is subjected to friction, like in the neck, eyelids, under the armpits, and in the groin area, where two parts of the body rub against each other, causing soft growths of skin called “skin tags” to develop in those places.
Some of the places where skin tags are usually found are:
- Neck
- Eyelids
- Under the armpits
- In the groin area
- Under the breasts
- Abdomen and back
However, some risk factors may increase the risk of acquiring skin tags, which include:
- Friction of the skin
- Being overweight
- Pregnancy
- Diabetes
- Metabolic syndrome
- Family history of having skin tags
Despite their unusual look, these tags are harmless and non-cancerous.

Your Skin Treatment Journey
Preparation for the Session
Before the procedure, the dermatologist will closely examine the skin tag and confirm that it is indeed a skin tag and not any other skin condition.
During the consultation with the doctor, you will be informed about the method that the doctor will be using to remove the skin tag and any questions you may have about the procedure.
Preparation may involve the following:
- Informing the doctor about your medical history
- Informing the doctor about your medication
- Avoiding irritation of the skin tag
- Ensuring you have clean skin when you go to the doctor
Safe and Precise Removal
During the procedure, the dermatologist will choose the best method to remove the skin tag based on the size and location of the skin tag.
Some medical methods that can be used to remove the skin tag include the following:
Cryotherapy
The dermatologist applies liquid nitrogen to the skin tag, which eventually peels off as the skin heals.
Electrocautery
A medical device is used to heat the skin tag and remove it.
Snip Removal
A dermatologist will use sterile scissors or a blade to remove the skin tag.
- Cleaning the treatment area
- Applying local anaesthesia
- Removing the skin tag using a medical method
- Stopping the bleeding and protecting the area
Healing and Recovery of the Skin
A scab is likely to form on the treatment area, which will heal within a short period.
Adhering to the aftercare will ensure proper healing.
- Keep the area clean
- Avoid scratching the treated area
- Follow your doctor’s skincare advice
- Protect the skin from irritation
