Professional removal of unwanted skin tags

Skin tags are small, soft growths that sit on or hang from the surface of the skin. They are commonly found around the neck, underarms, chest, eyelids and other areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing.

They do not usually require medical treatment. However, you may choose to have them removed if they are frequently irritated, catching on clothing or affecting how you feel about your skin.

At Beverley Alexandra, suitable skin tags can be treated using a precise plasma device, allowing Beverley to target the unwanted tissue while minimising disruption to the surrounding area.

Skin tag removal may be suitable for

  • Small, soft skin tags
  • Tags that regularly catch on clothing or jewellery
  • Skin tags around the neck, chest or underarm area
  • Tags that become irritated through friction
  • Clients who would like a skin tag removed for cosmetic reasons

All areas are assessed before treatment to confirm that removal is appropriate.

How does skin tag removal work?

A precise plasma device is used to deliver a controlled arc of energy to the skin tag. This targets the unwanted tissue without the need for traditional surgery.

Depending on the size and location of the tag, topical anaesthetic cream may be applied before treatment.

The treated area may be red or sensitive afterwards, and a small crust can develop while the skin heals. This should be left to fall away naturally.

What to expect after treatment

Some redness, tenderness or swelling may be present immediately after skin tag removal. A small crust may form over the treated area during the healing process.

Avoid picking or rubbing the area and follow the aftercare advice provided at your appointment.

The treated skin should be kept clean and protected from unnecessary sun exposure while it heals.

Beverley has done an amazing job of my lips. They look so natural and she made me feel very at ease during my appointments. She really knows her stuff and advised me what I needed, which was different to what I had originally thought. She was completely right and I’m so happy with the results. The clinic is also stunning and parking is easy.

I can’t recommend Bev enough! She is so professional, excellent at what she does, knowledgeable, she has a beautiful clinic, loads of different options so you can everything done in one place, friendly and approachable.
What Bev is also, she is honest. You won’t get any treatment you don’t need. You are not just a paycheque, she cares about you and your results. You face is her training, knowledge and work so you won’t leave looking less than 100% of your potential.
People keep telling me how fresh I look, but they can’t see what I have had done because it’s so natural , I have to point it out.
I will be a client of Bev’s for as long as she’ll have me!

I couldn’t recommend Beverley enough! I had fat dissolving injections, lip filler and chin filler with her, and I’m so happy with my results. From the very beginning, she was incredibly informative, honest and took the time to create a personalised treatment plan that was effective while still looking subtle and natural.

The results have given me such a confidence boost, and I really appreciated how truthful she was about what would and wouldn’t work for me rather than trying to oversell treatments. Her clinic is absolutely spotless, professional and made me feel comfortable throughout every appointment.

If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about achieving natural-looking results and puts your best interests first, I would highly recommend.

FAQs

A skin tag is a small, soft growth that hangs from the skin. Skin tags are usually harmless and are commonly found in areas where the skin experiences friction.

Most skin tags do not need treatment. Removal is usually chosen because a tag is catching, becoming irritated or causing a cosmetic concern.

The standard appointment includes removal of up to five suitable skin tags. If you have more than five, Beverley can assess them and advise you on the appropriate appointment or cost.

A skin tag that has been fully removed does not usually grow back in the same place. However, this does not prevent new skin tags from developing elsewhere.

Any treatment that breaks or heats the skin carries a risk of temporary redness, pigmentation changes or scarring. The likelihood varies depending on the size and location of the skin tag, your skin type and how the area heals.

No. Treatment is only offered for skin tags that can be confidently identified and are suitable for cosmetic removal.

Any growth that has changed in size, colour, shape or texture, or that bleeds without being caught, should be assessed by a GP or dermatologist rather than treated cosmetically.

Cutting, tying or burning a skin tag yourself can lead to bleeding, infection, skin damage or the accidental treatment of something that is not a skin tag. Professional assessment and removal are recommended.

The area will be assessed before treatment. If Beverley is not satisfied that the growth is a harmless skin tag, treatment will not go ahead and you may be advised to seek medical assessment.

Beauty is not just about how you look, but how you feel.
