Skin Tag Removal

20230421_031-1280

Do you want to permanently remove skin tags?

The removal of skin tags is simple and quick with advanced electrolysis. The procedure consists of cauterising the skin tag with an electrolysis needle or probe. This allows the electrolysis method to sufficiently destroy the skin tag growth.

The Apilus electrolysis machine will remove the skin tag quickly and easily using Thermolysis (heat) and a single-use sterile probe which will carefully cauterise the skin tag

before treatment

Before you book in for electrolysis skin tag removal, please email or whatsapp a clear close up photo of the skin tag you would like treated. If possible, place your little finger next to the tag to show the size of the tag.

During the initial consultation, Katie will make sure you are suitable for electrolysis, discuss what you would like to treat, medical history, how the treatment works, what to expect and aftercare.

During treatment

The Apilus electrolysis machine will remove the skin tag quickly and easily using Thermolysis (heat) and a single-use sterile probe which will carefully cauterise the skin tag,

The treatment is mildly uncomfortable, you may feel a slight stinging sensation but it’s normally over in a few seconds. Skin tags don’t normally bleed but if it does we will ensure it’s stopped before you leave. A soothing after care lotion will be applied at the end of the treatment.

After Treatment

Following your treatment you may experience a slight reddening/swelling or warmth of the skin in the area. Aftercare advice will be given.

You’ll probably notice small scabs or some dry red marks following your treatment. These will be small in size and won’t persist for more than 7 to 14 days. You will be left with no scarring – and, of course, there will be no sign that the skin tags were ever there to begin with.
