Private Skin Tag Removal
Skin tags can be annoying but fortunately, they do not pose a health risk and are all easily removed under local anaesthetic. I offer private skin tag removal to rid you of your skin tag(s) quickly and painlessly.
How can I help with Private Skin Tag Removal?
If you have a large skin tag or one on a troublesome location, such as the eyelid it may well be worth getting it removed.
I will rid you of your skin tag during quick, local anaesthetic surgery and close your wound with tiny absorbable stitches placed under magnification (exception is peri-anal skin tags which are usually not stitched). As a rule, tags are sent to the lab for checking to reassure you that there is no need for concern.
It’s easy to access our clinic in Waterlooville from Portsmouth, Fareham, Chichester, Southampton, Winchester, and the rest of the Solent area.

What is Private Skin Tag Removal?
Skin tag removal generally entails using a variety of techniques to remove the growth. If you have a tiny skin tag, seeing an aesthetic surgeon is recommended. I specialize in removing larger tags under local anaesthesia. The process of removing a skin tag is straightforward. The first step is to numb the surrounding region with a local anaesthetic.
What does the treatment for Private Skin Tag Removal involve?
During quick, local anaesthetic surgery, I will remove your skin tag and close your wound with small absorbable stitches placed under magnification (excepting peri-anal skin tags, which are generally not stitched). All of the skin tags that I remove are sent to the laboratory for verification to allay any concerns.
Recovery from Private Skin Tag Removal
This depends on where the wound is but overall, healing is rapid and stitches are soluble (not needing removal).
After surgery, you can expect some discomfort and some minimal bruising. Usually, normal activities can be resumed quickly, depending on where the tag was located.
What you can expect from Private Skin Tag Removal
The surgery usually takes about 30 minutes, depending on the nature of the tag and its location. Healing is rapid from skin stage removal and you can expect excellent results.

Reviews
Excellent care from start to finish
I recently had some veins treated in my Leg and, and as I was quite nervous, I really appreciated how lovely and reassuring everyone was.
The surgeon Simon was friendly, professional and put me completely at ease, and the nurse Becky was absolutely lovely and caring. They both made the whole experience much easier than I expected.
I’m very grateful for their care and would definitely recommend them.
Lipoma & skin tag removal
Carried out very professionally and additional after care support was provided.
Removal of 2 facial moles
I was offered a quick appointment and was able to have the consultation and procedure at the same time. Simon and his nurse were very friendly and fully discussed what needed to be done. I am delighted with the results and would totally recommend Simon.
Lipoma removal
Found Simon to be very professional and diligent within his work, the whole process took no more than an hour, I was made to feel at ease, comfortable and confident in Simon’s abilities. The cut was bigger & deeper than I expected, but that is more due to my own preconceived conceptions, Simon explained the whole process very well and detailed everything clearly before the operation went ahead, my head is healing up nicely.
Recent Cyst Removal
Absolutely would thoroughly recommend using Simon as recently had a cyst removed in a particular sensitive area. Felt at ease from the initial consultation through to the operation and final follow up. Special mention to his staff who had to put up with my ramblings during the op!!
