Skin Tags Removal: London & Surrey

Skin tags, also called acrochordons, are small flesh-coloured or brown growths that hang off the skin and look a bit like warts. They are usually found on the neck, chest, back, armpits, under the breasts, or in the groin area, often caused by friction. Find out more about skin tags below and how to treat them.

What is a Skin Tag?

Skin tags are not dangerous and very common. They are made up of loosely arranged collagen fibers and blood vessels surrounded by a thick end or thinned-out epidermis. Skin tags usually don’t cause any pain, however, they can be irritated or may end up bleeding if jewelry, clothing, or seat belts rub the skin tags.

What Does a Skin Tag Look Like?

Skin tags can look smooth or slightly wrinkled, and vary in size from 1 mm to 5 cm. The NHS states that they can look like warts, but skin tags are usually:

  • Smooth and soft (warts tend to be rougher with an irregular surface)
  • Knobbly and hang off the skin (warts are usually slightly raised or flat)
  • Not contagious (warts spread very easily, so a sudden outbreak or cluster of growths is more likely to be warts)

Treatments for Skin Tags

Skin tags can be removed safely with minimal scarring. There are both clinical and home treatments available to remove or stop such skin conditions.

The best thing to do is to book a consultation with a professional dermatologist or your family doctor (GP). They will be able to exam the skin tags to make sure that a more serious skin problems does not exist. Sometimes moles, warts and skin cancer lesions can be wrongly diagnosed as skin tags, so it’s important to confirm what it is first.
