What Are Skin Tags?
Skin tags are small, benign growths that often appear in areas where the skin folds or rubs together. While harmless, they can be bothersome or unsightly, especially if they occur on visible areas like the neck, underarms, or eyelids.
At BodyRX Miami, we provide safe and effective skin tag removal treatments in Coral Gables and Kendall, FL, helping you achieve smoother, clearer skin with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
Why Do Skin Tags Form?
Skin tags typically develop due to friction in high-contact areas of the body. Common contributing factors include:
- Genetics
- Hormonal changes, such as during pregnancy
- Weight fluctuations
- Aging
- Friction from clothing or jewelry
Although skin tags are harmless, many people choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons or to prevent irritation.
Where Do Skin Tags Commonly Appear?
Skin tags can develop anywhere on the body but are most common in areas such as:
- Neck
- Underarms
- Eyelids
- Groin and inner thighs
- Under the breasts
If you’re bothered by the appearance or irritation of skin tags, professional removal is a quick and simple solution.
How Are Skin Tags Removed at BodyRX Miami?
We offer several safe, minimally invasive removal methods tailored to the size and location of your skin tags:
- Cryotherapy: Freezing the skin tag with a special solution, causing it to fall off naturally within a few days.
- Excision: Using a sterile instrument to remove the skin tag directly.
- Cauterization: Gently burning off the skin tag to prevent regrowth.
Your provider will recommend the best option based on your skin type and the size and location of the skin tag.
What Can I Expect During and After Treatment?
Skin tag removal is a quick, in-office procedure typically lasting less than 30 minutes. A local anesthetic may be used to ensure your comfort. Most clients experience little to no discomfort, and recovery is fast.
Post-Treatment Guidelines:
- Keep the treated area clean and dry.
- Avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours.
- Refrain from lying down, bending, or heavy lifting for a few hours after treatment.
- Avoid heat exposure, including saunas and hot tubs, for the first 24 hours.
Following these aftercare steps helps prevent irritation and promotes optimal healing.
Are the Results Permanent?
Once removed, skin tags typically do not return. However, if you are prone to developing skin tags, new ones may appear in other areas over time. Regular skin checks and maintenance treatments can keep your skin looking clear and healthy.
