Tag Removal

Tag Removal at AVANA Clinics is a quick and effective procedure to eliminate skin tags, those small, soft skin growths that commonly appear on the neck, armpits, eyelids, and other areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing. Our expert dermatologists use advanced techniques to safely remove skin tags with minimal discomfort and scarring.

Our Tag Removal treatments are performed by skilled dermatologists who assess each skin tag and choose the most appropriate removal method. The procedure is typically very quick, often taking just a few minutes per tag, with immediate results.

The Tag Removal process may involve:

1. Thorough examination of the skin tags and surrounding area
2. Cleansing and preparing the skin
3. Applying local anesthesia if needed (for larger tags)
4. Removing the tag using one of the following methods:
• Cryotherapy (freezing the tag off)
• Electrocautery (burning the tag off)
• Snip excision (cutting the tag off with surgical scissors)
5. Applying an antibiotic ointment to the treated area
6. Providing aftercare instructions

Benefits of Tag Removal treatment include:

• Quick and effective removal of bothersome skin tags
• Minimal discomfort during the procedure
• Little to no scarring in most cases
• Immediate results visible after the treatment
• Improved appearance and increased confidence
• Can treat multiple tags in one session
• Prevents irritation caused by tags rubbing against clothing or jewelry
• Performed by experienced dermatologists for optimal results

Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment. The treated area may be slightly red or tender for a day or two, but this typically resolves quickly. It's important to keep the area clean and follow the aftercare instructions provided by our dermatologists to ensure proper healing.

While Tag Removal treatment effectively eliminates existing skin tags, it's important to note that new tags may form over time. Regular skin checks can help identify and address new growths early. Our experts at AVANA Clinics can provide advice on skin tag prevention and schedule follow-up treatments if needed.

For individuals with numerous skin tags or those in sensitive areas, we may recommend multiple sessions to ensure optimal results and minimize any potential for irritation. Our dermatologists will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs and skin condition.
