Skin tags are small, soft growths that commonly appear in areas where skin folds or experiences friction. While harmless, they can cause discomfort or aesthetic concerns, particularly when they catch on clothing or jewellery. We offer several methods for removing skin tags safely and effectively.
A Note From Dr Aleks
Holistic skin care blends aesthetic treatments with medical and surgical methods that can improve the health and appearance of the skin. At OLA Aesthetics in West Perth, we offer everything from whole-body skin checks to surgical excisions for benign and cancerous lesions. You can take advantage of our services for routine skin care, treatments for chronic and acute skin conditions and procedures for specialised needs. With each service, we will guide you through what to expect from treatment and recovery with an emphasis on continued skin care.
What to Expect During Treatment
During your consultation, we will examine the skin tag and recommend the most appropriate removal method based on its size, location and characteristics. Treatment options may include cryotherapy (freezing), cauterisation or surgical excision. Most procedures can be performed under local anaesthetic to ensure your comfort, with minimal recovery time needed afterwards.
What to Expect After Treatment
While there may be some scarring depending on the scope of the procedure, we use techniques that minimise scarring as much as possible. We also promote a smooth healing process by educating you about proper care. After the removal, tissue is sometimes sent for biopsy to confirm its nature and assess any further treatment needs.
