Treatment Overview

What Is Skin Tag Removal?

Skin tag removal is a precise, doctor-led procedure designed to safely eliminate unwanted skin tags for cosmetic or comfort reasons. At HAVA Aesthetics in Esher, Surrey, Dr. Hadeel Nimaa provides advanced skin tag removal solutions that are quick, minimally invasive, and tailored to your individual needs. Whether the goal is to improve skin appearance, prevent irritation, or remove tags that catch on clothing or jewellery, her treatments deliver natural results with minimal discomfort and downtime.

Skin tags are soft, benign skin growths that often appear on the neck, underarms, eyelids, or other friction-prone areas. While harmless, they can become a cosmetic concern or cause discomfort. Dr. Hadeel Nimaa uses safe and effective methods such as CryoPen, shave excision, snip excision, and minor surgery to remove skin tags with precision and care.

Types of Skin Tag Removal Treatments

At HAVA Aesthetics, Dr. Hadeel Nimaa offers several treatment options for skin tag removal depending on the size, location, and characteristics of the tag:

 

CryoPen Removal

CryoPen is a non-surgical method that uses targeted cryotherapy to freeze the skin tag, causing the tissue to naturally fall away over time. The device emits a precise jet of nitrous oxide to target only the tag, leaving the surrounding healthy skin untouched. This makes CryoPen ideal for small to medium-sized tags and ensures a quick recovery. We offer CryoPen for:

• Skin tags
• Skin lesions
• Skin blemishes such as age spots or brown spots

Shave Excision

This method involves shaving the skin tag at its base using a sterile blade. Performed under local anaesthetic, it is quick, effective, and allows for smooth skin healing.

 

Snip Excision

A common method for removing larger tags, snip excision involves cutting the skin tag away using surgical scissors. This is also performed under local anaesthetic for comfort.

All removal techniques are carried out personally by Dr. Hadeel Nimaa to ensure the highest safety standards and the best cosmetic outcome.

What Can Skin Tag Removal Treat?

Skin tag removal can address a range of skin concerns, including:

 

• Benign skin tags in visible or friction-prone areas

• Skin lesions that cause irritation or discomfort

• Cosmetic improvement for smoother skin texture

• Tags that interfere with daily activities or clothing

 

Many patients choose to combine their skin tag removal with other aesthetic treatments such as Skin Rejuvenation, anti-ageing injectables, or skincare solutions for enhanced results.

The Skin Tag Removal Procedure

Your treatment begins with a consultation with Dr. Hadeel Nimaa to assess the skin tag and determine the most suitable method of removal. She will review your skin type, skin conditions, and medical history before creating a personalised treatment plan.

 

During the procedure:

1. Local Anaesthetic – The area is numbed to ensure minimal discomfort.

2. Removal – Dr. Hadeel Nimaa performs the chosen method (CryoPen, shave excision, or snip excision) with precision.

3. Aftercare – You will be provided with detailed instructions to support skin healing and prevent complications.

Recovery Time and Aftercare

Following skin tag removal, most patients experience only mild redness or tenderness at the site, which resolves within days. Typical recovery time depends on the method used:

 

• CryoPen: Minimal downtime with natural skin healing over 1–2 weeks.

 

• Shave or snip excision: Slightly longer healing due to the open wound, typically 1–3 weeks.

 

Dr. Hadeel Nimaa advises avoiding excessive sun exposure, applying SPF daily, and following any skincare advice provided during your appointment to protect your results.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, in most cases skin tag removal is classed as a cosmetic treatment because skin tags are usually harmless and removed for cosmetic reasons such as improving appearance or preventing irritation. However, in some cases where a skin tag is causing discomfort or repeatedly becoming inflamed, removal may be recommended for functional reasons.

While Mole Removal and skin tag removal can use similar methods, such as excision removal, the approach depends on the type of lesion being treated. Skin tags are benign and easier to remove, often requiring only quick, minimally invasive techniques, whereas mole removal sometimes involves more in-depth surgical procedures and lab testing.

When performed by an experienced practitioner, skin tag removal targets only the tag itself, leaving the surrounding skin intact. At HAVA Aesthetics, Dr. Hadeel Nimaa uses precise methods such as CryoPen or excision techniques to ensure minimal trauma and optimal healing.

Skin tags are common in skin folds such as the neck, underarms, or groin, where friction and moisture can stimulate growth. They may also be linked to collagen changes within the skin, as skin tags contain collagen fibres and small blood vessels surrounded by skin.

Yes, removing unwanted skin tags can be part of a broader skin rejuvenation or aesthetic improvement plan. Many patients combine skin tag removal with other procedures such as Acne scar treatment, anti-ageing injectables, or advanced skincare to create smoother, healthier-looking skin.

Excision removal is a technique where the skin tag is cut away at the base using a scalpel or surgical scissors. This is usually performed under local anaesthetic and offers immediate results. It is a quick, safe, and effective method, particularly for larger tags, with minimal downtime and careful protection of the surrounding skin.
