Skin Tag Removal in London

At Hannah London Medi Spa, we understand that having unwanted skin tags can be more than just a cosmetic concern. These small, benign growths can cause discomfort and even embarrassment, and can sometimes be a source of psychological distress. That’s why we offer safe and effective skin tag removal at our state-of-the-art medi spa in London.

What are Skin Tags and Why Should They be Removed?

Skin tags, also known as acrochordons, are small, benign (non-cancerous) skin conditions or skin lesions that typically appear on the skin in areas where there is skin friction, such as the neck, armpits, groin, or under the breasts. These areas often have excess skin, which can contribute to the formation of skin tags in the flap of skin folds.

While skin tags are not harmful, many people choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons, or because the excess skin causes discomfort or irritation. In these cases, the removal of cosmetic skin tags can provide relief and improve the appearance of the affected area.

At Hannah London Medi Spa, we offer safe and effective skin tag treatments that can help you achieve the smooth, clear skin you desire. Our qualified and experienced staff will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs and goals. This may include advanced electrolysis technology or cryotherapy, or in some cases, a surgical removal method using invasive techniques. Our skin tag removal clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by qualified and experienced medical professionals, so you can trust that you are in good hands.

Safe and Effective Skin Tag Removal at Hannah London Medi Spa

At Hannah London Medi Spa, we use advanced electrolysis technology to remove skin tags quickly and efficiently, including larger skin tags, with minimal discomfort and minimal scarring. This method uses a small electrical charge to destroy the blood vessels that supply the skin tag, causing it to fall off naturally over the course of several days. The skin tag removal process is typically quick and painless, and there are no significant side effects like permanent scarring.

In some cases, we may also use cryotherapy (freezing) to remove skin tags. This method involves applying liquid nitrogen to the skin tag, which destroys the cells and causes the skin tag to fall off naturally over the course of several days. This method is also quick and painless, and there are no significant side effects.
