Skin Tag Removal to restore smooth skin
Skin tags can vary in colour, shape and size. They are soft features that tend to occur on the neck, armpit or groin and despite not being overly obvious – they can affect our self-confidence.
LINIA London-based Skin Clinic in Harley Street offer the latest skin tag removal treatments to help you gain your self-confidence back

What are skin tags?
Skin tags are very common soft harmless lesions that appear to hang off the skin.
Skin tags develop in both men and women as they grow older. They are skin coloured or darker and range in size from 1mm to 5mm.
These lesions are most commonly formed as a result of ageing, but they tend to also be prevalent in obese people or people who have gained or lost a lot of weight.
They also tend to be more numerous in those with type 2 diabetes.
Where are Skin Tags Most Commonly Found?
Skin tags can appear on most parts of the body, but are most common in the following areas:
- Eyelids
- Neck
- Armpits
- Groin
- Most common in areas of the body that have skin folds

What Treatments Are Available For Skin Tag Removal?
We offer a wide range of treatments for skin tag removal at our Harley Street clinic.
Skin tags can be removed for cosmetic reasons by the following methods:
- Cryotherapy (freezing)
- Shave excision
- Electrosurgery (diathermy)
The best way to remove skin tags and the treatment recommended depends.
The proposed treatment will depend on your skin tag – the size, the location, type and other variables which our dermatologist will discuss with you.
Book your consultation today and we’ll give you the best treatment option for your specific skin tag.

Cryotherapy (Freezing)
This treatment involves removing the skin tag by freezing it, also known as Cryotherapy.
This is where Liquid Nitrogen is used on the skin tag to destroy its cells. This allows for the tag to be easily and painlessly removed.
It’s even quiet common for the skin tags to simply fall off naturally after cryotherapy treatment.
Shave Excision
This is where a local anaesthetic is provided and a razor is then used to shave the lesion off, cutting off the skin tag.
Diathermy
This method of getting rid of skin tags uses an electrical current and needle, working in contrast to the freezing method, by instead heating up the lesion.
This allows the skin tag to easily be cut from the skin surface.
