Skin Tag Removal
Safe, Quick, and Effective Solutions
Skin tags are small, benign growths that can appear anywhere on the body, often in areas where skin rubs together—like the neck, underarms, eyelids, or under the breasts. While harmless, skin tags can irritate or catch on clothing and jewelry. At O’Neill Plastic Surgery in Charleston, SC, we offer simple and effective treatments to remove skin tags and restore smooth, comfortable skin.
What are Skin Tags?
Skin tags (also called acrochordons) are soft, flesh-colored growths of collagen and blood vessels. They’re extremely common and completely non-cancerous. Skin tags may occur in both men and women, and while they can appear at any age, they are more prevalent in adults over 40, those with weight changes, or individuals with diabetes or hormonal changes.
Common Reasons for Removal
- Cosmetic concerns
- Skin irritation or discomfort
- Repeated snagging on clothing or jewelry
- Bleeding or inflammation
