Skin Tag Removal 

A simple solution for something that’s been bothering you 

Skin tags are incredibly common and can be incredibly frustrating. Whether they’re snagging on your clothing, making you feel self-conscious, or just showing up in all the wrong places, you don’t have to live with them forever.

At Balance Medical, we offer gentle, in-office skin tag removal that’s quick, safe, and tailored to your comfort. If you’ve been wondering whether it’s “worth treating” or putting off care because it feels cosmetic or embarrassing, we’re here to tell you: it’s okay to want them gone…and we can help with that!

What Are Skin Tags?

Skin tags are small, soft growths that hang off the surface of the skin. They’re usually flesh-colored, painless, and benign (non-cancerous), but they can become irritated or inflamed, especially when they’re in high-friction areas like:

• The neck
• Underarms
• Under the breasts
• Groin or inner thighs
• Eyelids
• Around the vaginal or perineal area

Skin tags are more likely to appear with hormonal shifts (like pregnancy or menopause), weight changes, or simply as we age. While they aren’t dangerous, they can be annoying, and that’s reason enough to talk about removal.

Who Is Skin Tag Removal For?

Skin tag removal is a great option if you:

• Have tags that rub against clothing or jewelry
• Experience irritation, bleeding, or discomfort
• Feel self-conscious about the appearance of a skin tag
• Want to remove tags from intimate or hard-to-reach areas
• Simply want smoother skin

Whether you have one or several, we can assess your skin and recommend the best removal method for your body and goals.

What to Expect During Skin Tag Removal

Skin tag removal is a simple, in-office procedure that typically takes just a few minutes. Depending on the size, number, and location of your skin tags, we may use one of the following methods:

• Snip excision (a quick clip with sterile tools)
• Cryotherapy (freezing the tag with a safe, targeted application)
• Cautery (gently burning the tag to seal the skin)

We’ll numb the area if needed and make sure you’re comfortable the entire time. Most patients experience little to no discomfort, and there’s no downtime afterward, so you can go right back to your day.

Recovery Timeline

No downtime. No hassle. Just flawless results.

Recovery and Aftercare

After removal, the area may feel slightly tender or scab over as it heals. Here’s what you can expect:

• Minimal discomfort (if any)
• Keeping the area clean and dry for a few days
• Avoiding harsh products, rubbing, or sun exposure on the treated area
• A small mark that fades over time

We’ll give you aftercare instructions specific to your treatment and skin type, and we’re always here if you have questions after you leave the office.
