Skin tags are small, benign growths that often appear on various parts of the body. While they are generally harmless, many people opt to have them removed for cosmetic reasons or due to irritation. At The Skin Care Clinic near Wellington, we specialise in skin tag removal using the CryoPen, a state-of-the-art device that ensures quick, effective, and virtually painless removal. Our goal is to provide you with the best possible care in a comfortable and professional environment.

What Are Skin Tags?

Skin tags, or acrochordons, are soft, skin-coloured growths that can appear on the neck, armpits, groin, and other areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing. They are composed of collagen fibres and blood vessels surrounded by skin. While skin tags are not harmful, they can be a source of discomfort or self-consciousness for many individuals.

Why Remove Skin Tags?

Though harmless, skin tags can become irritated by clothing or jewellery, and their appearance can be bothersome to some people. Removal is often sought for cosmetic reasons or to prevent irritation. At The Skin Care Clinic, we understand the importance of feeling confident in your skin, and our CryoPen treatment offers a safe and efficient solution.

CryoPen: Advanced Technology for Skin Tag Removal

The CryoPen is a cutting-edge device that utilises cryotherapy to remove skin tags. This technique involves the application of extreme cold to the skin tag, causing it to freeze and eventually fall off. The CryoPen delivers a precise and controlled amount of cryogen directly to the skin tag, ensuring effective treatment with minimal discomfort.

Benefits of CryoPen Treatment:

1. Precision: The CryoPen allows for targeted treatment, ensuring that only the skin tag is affected, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.
2. Quick Procedure: The treatment is swift, typically taking only a few minutes per skin tag.
3. Minimal Discomfort: Most patients experience little to no pain during the procedure, making it a comfortable option for skin tag removal.
4. No Downtime: You can resume your normal activities immediately after the treatment.
5. Effective Results: The CryoPen provides reliable results, with the treated skin tag falling off within a few days to a couple of weeks.

The Procedure: What to Expect

When you choose The Skin Care Clinic for your skin tag removal, you can expect a professional and reassuring experience from start to finish.

Consultation

Your journey begins with a consultation where our experienced practitioners assess your skin tags and discuss your medical history. We will explain the CryoPen treatment in detail and address any questions or concerns you may have.

Treatment

On the day of the procedure, the area around the skin tag will be cleansed, and the CryoPen will be used to freeze the skin tag. The treatment is quick, often taking only a few minutes. You may feel a slight tingling or cold sensation, but this is typically well-tolerated.

Post-Treatment Care

After the procedure, we provide you with simple aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing. The treated skin tag will darken and fall off within a few days to two weeks. It is important to keep the area clean and avoid picking at the treated site.
