What Are Skin Tags?
Skin tags are small, benign growths of skin that typically appear in areas where the skin rubs against itself or clothing, such as the neck, armpits, eyelids, and groin. While they are not harmful, skin tags can become irritated, especially if they catch on jewelry, clothing, or shave lines. Though not a medical concern, many people choose to have skin tags removed for cosmetic reasons or to avoid potential discomfort.

How Skin Tag Removal Works
At Metroderm DC, we offer several safe and effective methods for removing skin tags. Depending on the size, location, and number of skin tags, your dermatologist will recommend the best approach for you:
- Cryotherapy: This involves freezing the skin tag with liquid nitrogen, causing it to fall off after a few days.
- Excision: The skin tag is carefully snipped off with a small surgical instrument. This method is often used for larger or more stubborn tags.
- Laser Removal: A laser is used to target and vaporize the skin tag, ensuring a precise and effective removal with minimal discomfort.
Each procedure is quick, and most patients experience little to no downtime. You may return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.
Is Skin Tag Removal Right for Me?
Skin tag removal is a safe and effective option for individuals who want to eliminate unwanted growths. If you are in good health and have skin tags that are causing discomfort or affecting your appearance, you are likely a good candidate for treatment. During your consultation at Metroderm DC, our dermatologists will evaluate your skin and discuss your goals to create a personalized treatment plan.
What to Expect After Skin Tag Removal
Recovery after skin tag removal is minimal, and most patients can resume their daily activities right away. You may experience mild redness or swelling at the treatment site, but these effects typically subside within a few hours to a day. In rare cases, there may be minor scarring, but this is usually minimal and fades over time. Your dermatologist will provide aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and prevent infection.
