Treatment

  • Surgical Removal

What Can Be Done?

Skin tags do not need treatment. If skin tags become sore from rubbing clothing or jewelry or if you find them unsightly, they can be removed surgically. Healing is usually complete in a week or two. New skin tags may form even if all existing tags are removed.
