The
PROCEDURE
Skin tag removal using a plasma pen is a safe and effective procedure that uses advanced plasma energy to precisely target and remove skin tags and benign moles without directly touching the skin. During the procedure, the plasma pen is held above the skin, emitting controlled plasma energy that penetrates the skin’s outer layer, causing the skin tag or mole to gently come off. This method ensures minimal discomfort and reduces the risk of scarring, making it an ideal option if you’re seeking non-invasive skin tag removal.
With our state-of-the-art plasma pen technology, Amanda induces controlled micro-injuries to the skin tissue, stimulating the production of new collagen and accelerating the natural healing process. The thermal disruption caused by the plasma pen encourages the release and activation of essential proteins and growth factors, resulting in increased collagen production. Over time, the excess skin dries off to form tiny crusts that naturally fall off within a few days, leaving behind smoother and rejuvenated skin.

Skin tags are small, soft, benign growths that typically appear on areas of the body where skin rubs against skin or clothing. These growths are often flesh-coloured or slightly darker and can vary in size, ranging from a few millimetres to several centimetres in diameter. While skin tags are generally harmless, they can be cosmetically bothersome, particularly when they catch on clothing or jewellery.
Skin tags form due to a variety of factors, including friction, hormonal changes, and genetics. Areas of the body prone to friction, such as the neck, underarms, groin, and eyelids, are common areas for skin tag development. Hormonal fluctuations, which can happen during pregnancy or in those with conditions like diabetes, can also contribute to the formation of skin tags. Additionally, genetics may play a role, as those with a family history of skin tags are more likely to develop them.
Despite being common, skin tags are not typically covered by the NHS as they are considered cosmetic rather than medically necessary. Therefore, if you’re seeking skin tag removal for aesthetic reasons you may need to explore private treatment options. With our advanced plasma pen technology and expertise, we provide safe and effective skin tag removal procedures tailored to your individual needs, helping you achieve smoother, clearer skin with confidence.
While everyone's pain tolerance is different, the majority of those undergoing skin tag removal experience minimal discomfort. Topical anaesthetics may be applied to numb the area prior to treatment, ensuring a more comfortable experience.
Results can vary depending on the size and location of the skin tag, as well as the method of removal used. In most cases, the skin tag will fall off within a few days to a week after treatment. However, it may take several weeks for the skin to fully heal and for any residual redness or scarring to fade.
Skin tag removal is generally considered safe, however, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, including temporary discomfort, redness, swelling, or scarring. It's essential to follow post-treatment care instructions to minimise these risks and promote optimal healing.
In most cases, skin tags don’t grow back once they have been effectively removed. However, new skin tags may develop over time, especially if you are prone to them genetically or continue to experience friction in the affected area. It's essential to maintain good skincare practices and monitor your skin regularly for any new growths.
While there are various home remedies and over-the-counter products available for skin tag removal, it's generally safer and more effective to have them removed by a qualified healthcare professional. DIY methods, such as cutting or tying off skin tags, can lead to infection, scarring, or other complications. Consulting with a trained professional like Amanda ensures proper diagnosis and treatment tailored to your specific needs.
