What Is Skin Tag Removal?
Skin tags are common, harmless growths that can become irritated by clothing, jewelry, shaving, or friction. If they're bothering you, they can often be removed during a quick office visit.
At One Connection Healthcare, we use a gentle lift-and-snip technique that involves lifting the skin tag and carefully trimming it at the base using sterile instruments. Most removals take only a few minutes, require little to no recovery time, and provide immediate results.
Before your procedure, your provider will examine the area, answer any questions, and make sure removal is appropriate. Not every skin growth is a skin tag.
Who Can Benefit from Skin Tag Removal?
Skin tag removal may be a good option if you have skin tags that:
Rub on clothing or jewelry
Catch while shaving
Become irritated or uncomfortable
Bleed after repeated friction
Interfere with daily activities
You're simply ready to have removed for comfort
We treat skin tags of various sizes and locations during a simple office visit. During your visit, your provider will examine the area to determine whether removal is appropriate or if additional evaluation is recommended.

What to Expect During Your Appointment
-
01. Before Skin Tag Removal
Your provider will examine the skin tag(s), discuss the procedure, and answer any questions. Depending on the location, a gown or drape may be provided for your comfort and privacy.
-
02. During the Procedure
Using sterile instruments, your provider will gently lift the skin tag and carefully remove it at the base. You may feel a brief pinch or mild discomfort, but the procedure is typically over within seconds for each skin tag.
-
03. After Your Appointment
A bandage may be applied if there is minor bleeding, which is common because skin tags have a blood supply. Most people return to normal activities immediately, and no special aftercare is typically needed beyond removing the bandage once bleeding has stopped.
