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.

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.
