Safe and Effective Removal Methods
At rtwskin, we use clinically proven techniques depending on the type, size and location of the skin tag.
- CO2 and Erbium YAG laser removal for precise treatment of delicate areas, including around the eyes

- Controlled treatment techniques designed to protect surrounding skin and minimise scarring
Each procedure is selected individually to ensure safe, effective and cosmetically refined results.
Which Areas Can It Treat?
Skin tags commonly develop in areas where the skin experiences friction or natural folding.
-
Eyelids
Require precise removal due to delicate skin.
-
Neck
One of the most common areas, often with multiple skin tags.
-
Underarms
Caused by friction and moisture.
-
Chest and under-breast area
Common in areas with skin contact.
-
Groin and body folds
Sensitive zones where professional removal is recommended.
Treatment is tailored depending on the size, number and location of skin tags to ensure the safest and most effective outcome.
Post-Treatment Care & Repeat Visits
After treatment, it’s crucial to keep the area clean and avoid picking at any scabs that form. We recommend:
-
Applying an antibacterial ointment for 2–3 days
-
Avoiding excessive sun exposure
-
Skipping heavy exercise for 24 hours
-
Rebooking for a follow-up if more tags appear
Some individuals, especially those genetically prone, may experience new tags over time. We often see patients return annually for laser removal of skin tags, particularly in high-friction zones.
Main Advantages of Removing Skin Tags
Choosing to professionally remove skin tags offers multiple benefits beyond cosmetic improvement. These include:
The skin tags removal price depends on the number and size of lesions, as well as the removal technique used – whether laser or cautery.

However, we always provide clear, transparent fees following your initial consultation at rtwskin clinic, with no hidden costs.

If you are unsure, a professional consultation is recommended before removal
