Scientifically termed acrochordons, skin tags are small soft growths commonly occurring in people of all ages. Mostly benign growths, skin tags are usually small in appearance, accompanied with or without a stalk.

Combined response to genetic factors and skin folds in the body affects men and women equally. But the incidence is higher in:
- Obese people
- Diabetics
- People with Metabolic syndrome

How Do Skin Tags Look and Where Do they Appear?
Skin tags are small, skin-colored bumps that appear on your body. They may or may not have a peduncle or stalk. They are typically 1-6 mm in size. Some have a flattened appearance, and some have a flowery pattern.
Skin tags may appear on any part of the body covered by skin. However, they are more likely to form in parts of the body that have skin folds. These include:
- The base of the neck
- The eyelids
- The breasts
- The armpit region
- The groin
- The buttock
The experts at Bizrahmed can address skin tag removal on any part of the body. We can even perform skin tag on eyelid removal and skin growth on face removal.
What are the Methods of Skin Tag Removal?
The most popular methods for skin tag removal are as follows:
Laser
Laser treatments can be used to remove moles and skin tags by evaporating them from the body. The concentrated light beams target the tag, so it evaporates them causing them to eventually fall off.
The process typically involves 1-2 sittings. After that, the tag will fall off in 10-15 days.
The procedure does not lead to scarring or downtown. However, you must take precautions to ensure safe recovery. The site will be mostly healed within 3-4 days and fully healed within 10-15 days.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy involves applying liquid nitrogen to the skin tag which kills its skin cells and causes it to fall off within 10-15 days. The procedure has a low risk of side effects and a minimal recovery time.
Surgical Removal
Surgical removal involves the area being numbed and having the skin tag removed with scissors or a scalpel. Although the procedure is effective, it is waning in popularity as other, less invasive treatments that come with lower risk and less downtime are preferred.
The medical experts at Bizrahmed will help you decide which method of skin tag removal is right for you.
Who is a Good Candidate for Skin Tag Removal?
Skin tag removal is a relatively quick and easy process that involves little downtime. However, complications can arise if certain factors exist. So, who are the ideal candidates for skin tag removal?
You may consider the procedure if you:
- Are over 18 and in good health

Skin Tags vs. Warts
Skin tags and warts are similar, but they are not the same. Here are some differences to consider.
- Skin tags are smooth while warts are rough and have an irregular surface.
- Skin tags are raised from the skin by a thin stalk while warts are slightly raised or entirely flat.
- Warts are caused by viruses while skin tags are causing by a variety of factors including aging, weight, hormones, and friction.
- Warts can be contagious, but skin tags are not.
Warts and skin tags can both be removed by cryotherapy, electrolysis, and surgical means. Laser is a popular method for skin tag removal but is not always successful for wart removal.
Our experts will determine if you are dealing with a skin tag or wart, and we will recommend the most effective treatment for removal.

Skin Tag Removal Results
Skin tag removal is an easy process. It does not require any follow up or repeat sessions. It does not leave behind any marks or scarring. After the tag is removed, you can enjoy smooth clear skin.
What’s more, you will no longer have to be concerned about the discomfort skin tags cause during shaving or when they rub against clothing.
What Steps are Involved in Skin Tag Removal?
The steps involved in skin tag removal will vary depending on the method being used. The surgical and laser procedures are similar and require the following steps:
- The skin area is sterilized and numbed with local anesthetics.
- The laser or cauterization device is held close to the tag so it can be removed.
- Laser beams or heat rays are applied to the tag (for laser). The surgeon excises the tag (for surgical).
- After the tag is removed, the area is treated with cooling creams and antibiotics.
This differs from cryotherapy which simply involves the liquid nitrogen being applied to the tag, The process may have to be repeated before the tag falls off.
After the procedure, doctors may advise you to wear sunscreen, avoid unnecessary sun exposure, apply cold compresses, and treat your skin with care while healing takes place.
Our skilled technicians will follow all the steps necessary to ensure you get the best results possible.
Cost of Skin Tag Removal
There are several factors that will affect the cost of skin tag removal. These include:
- The skills of the surgeon: A highly skilled surgeon will charge more than a less experienced one. However, it is worth it to pay more to ensure you get safe, effective results.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
Cryotherapy and Electrocauterization (Laser therapy) are the most common skin tag removal methods in Dubai. Cryotherapy involves firing at the tags with liquid nitrogen resulting in the death of the cells, after which they are self-removed. The laser emits concentrated light and beams up the spots resulting in the evaporation of the tags and their shedding.
These methods are minimally invasive, painless and with virtually no downtime. Additionally, they yield long-term results and do not require follow-up visits, making them the preferred mode of skin tag removal in Dubai.
Skin tag removal is not painful if conducted by non-invasive methods. Cauterisation and laser removal are conducted by treating the area with numbing agents. This results in mild discomfort sensation but without any pain.
Other methods, like surgical excision using a scalpel or scissors, are more painful, carrying the risk of scarring after treatment. Apart from technical aspects, the surgeon's skill is another important factor. A skilled surgeon ensures painless surgery and makes sure you are comfortable throughout the procedure.
Skin tags don't grow back after being removed. But a new skin tag may develop in the same area, especially if the cells in the epidermis are prone to clustering. Additionally, a cancerous lesion can regrow with increased intensity after being removed the first time.
Skin tags are more common in obese people. Losing weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can contribute to preventing them from re-growing. Also, a biopsy of the removed tag can determine the reason for regrowth and rule out cancer possibilities, if any.
The areas most effectively treated using skin tag removal techniques are the armpits, neck region, back, facial part, buttocks and groin. Cryo is more suitable for smaller-sized skin warts in the neck or facial area.
It is painless and stimulates cell growth in the treatment region. Laser treatment works best for facial tags and those over the eyelid region. Excision removal opts for larger-sized or over-hanging warts. Usually, those in the groin, buttocks, or titles greater than 3mm are removed through excision.
Cauterisation, cryotherapy and surgical excision are some of the best methods for permanently removing skin tags. These methods work efficiently on the source of the growth and eradicate it. While the tag in question is removed, new tags can grow.
A laser is a form of removal by Electrocauterisation and an effective way of treating skin tags. Laser, apart from being painless, results in virtually no downtime. The procedure gets over in a short time, and the results are observed in 12-14 days.
More petite skin tags respond best to laser treatment, especially on the face. More invasive methods like surgical excision work best for larger overhanging skin tags.
When handled by experienced medical practitioners, skin tag removals are safe. The procedure is performed by certified and skilled professionals who are licensed to conduct the procedure. In case of any casualties, they ensure that the risk of complications stays at a minimum level.
Before and after the removal procedure, you are provided with set pre-operative and post-operative instructions. Following them ensures that your removal procedure goes smoothly and satisfactory results are obtained permanently.
The surgery, lasers or cryo take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. In the case of surgical excision, the skin tag removal is over immediately. In the case of Lasers and Cryotherapy, the cells of the tags are killed or evaporated, and the tag itself falls off within 10-15 days.
Home remedies though many, should not be tried as their safety has not been proven, and removal through them may lead to increased complications.
