Private Skin Tag Removal in Birmingham, Cardiff, Shrewsbury & Wolverhampton

Skin tags are small, soft, skin-coloured growths that hang off the skin, giving them the name “tags”. Skin tags are typically found on the neck, armpits, around the groin, or under the breasts. They are common and don’t often cause pain. In our experience our patients usually enquire about skin tag removal if they become unsightly or if they are catching on clothing or jewellery.

Most NHS services now see skin tag removal as a “procedure of limited clinical value” and purely cosmetic, and as such, you are rarely able to get the procedure through the NHS. Summerfield Healthcare do not require NHS GP referral.

If you would like your skin tag removed and would like to be seen quickly, enquire with us today and we can provide you with a cost of removal.

FAQs

What is the Skin Tag Removal process?

Although there are products on the market for DIY skin tag removal, you should be very cautious of these and always consult a doctor. Skin tags usually need to be removed by cauterising, freezing, or with minor surgery – none of these procedures should be undertaken at home or by anyone without formal medical training.

During your consultation, our clinician will discuss with you how your skin tag will be removed. The decision will be made based on the nature and location of the skin tag so that we can offer you the fastest and easiest procedure with the best results.

Cauterisation is the most effective and common removal method for removing skin tags. Liquid nitrogen is used to freeze the cells of the skin tag, blocking blood flow, and causing the tag to naturally fall away.

In some cases, minor surgery may have to be undertaken, where the skin tag is cut off, and the area stitched closed. This will be done under local anaesthetic and is a straightforward procedure.

Please note, skin tag removal surgery is only available to people aged 18 and over.

What if I have more than one skin tag?

Our clinicians can remove multiple skin tags in one appointment so you often won’t need to book on multiple occasions. If we do however find that you need longer than the booked appointment time, we will also assist you in booking a further appointment at a time convenient to you.

During your initial consultation, your consultant will look at any affected area and speak to you about the possible treatment options. The cost of multiple removals will be confirmed to you before your procedure starts, and there are no hidden costs.

You can choose to have certain skin tags removed and to leave others and our clinicians are happy to help you in deciding what is best for you.
