How does skin tag removal work at Skinholic?
One of the shortest appointments on our menu, and one of the most asked about. Here is the treatment as described on its own page.
Because skin tags are benign, removing them is generally considered a cosmetic concern rather than a medical one. That said, part of the value of an in-person assessment at our Surrey or Aldergrove clinic is simply confirming that what you are seeing is in fact a harmless tag. If a growth looks unusual, has changed in size, colour or shape, or is causing symptoms, our team will refer you to a physician instead of proceeding, so you always have the appropriate eyes on it.
Skin tags most commonly show up in areas of friction, which is why the neck, underarms, eyelid area, under the bust and other body folds are the spots clients ask about most. Location matters when planning treatment, since delicate areas call for a gentler, more careful approach. During your consultation your practitioner looks at each tag, considers where it sits, and explains which of our options is best suited to that specific area and your skin.
Aftercare is usually straightforward, but the specifics depend on the treatment used and the area addressed, so your practitioner will give you tailored guidance before you leave. In general, keeping the area clean, protected from sun and free from picking supports comfortable healing. If you have questions once you are home, both our Surrey and Aldergrove locations are happy to hear from you, and your free consultation is the ideal place to raise anything you are unsure about beforehand.

That is exactly what the consultation is for, since we assess the skin in person before recommending anything. Anything atypical, such as a growth that is changing, bleeding or otherwise concerning, is referred to a physician rather than treated at the clinic.
