Skin Tag Removal: What to Expect

A skin tag is a type of skin growth. They are generally flesh-colored, can be anywhere on the body and usually develop in older adults. If the appearance of your skin tag bothers you, it is likely that you are seeking skin tag removal. Skin tag removal is a great option if a person does not like the feel or look of the skin tag or if it is a hindrance when putting on clothing.

Proudly serving clients throughout Lawrenceville, Suwanee, Dacula, Duluth, Buford, Snellville and the surrounding areas, our team at Center for Dermatology is proud to offer skin tag removal. The treatment typically involves total removal of the skin tag, leading to a better appearance in the treated area.

The Process of Skin Tag Removal

During an appointment at our office, a qualified professional can examine the skin tag to determine the best method of skin tag removal. A consultation is important because it gives us the opportunity to assess the growth and discuss your goals and overall health. The procedure itself can be performed in the comfort of our office utilizing specialized techniques.

Once a skin tag has been removed, it will usually not return. It is possible another skin tag will appear in another area, however. The good news is you can always turn to our team at Center for Dermatology whenever you are seeking skin tag removal.
