What Is Skin Tag and Mole Removal?

Skin tag and mole removal is a quick, in-office procedure that eliminates benign growths to create even, comfortable skin. Your board-certified surgeon may use shave excision, radio-frequency ablation, surgical snip, or laser, all under gentle local anesthesia.

Most sites seal within 7–10 days; pinkness fades over the next few weeks while collagen remodels.

Ideal for:  adults bothered by painless tags or stable moles that snag jewelry, itch, or detract from appearance.

FAQs

How much does skin-tag and mole removal cost?
Fees depend on the size, location, and number of lesions. You’ll receive a clear, all-inclusive quote during your one-on-one consultation—plus flexible financing options if you need them.
Will the procedure hurt?
You’ll feel only a brief pinch from local anesthesia; most patients report zero pain during the actual removal.
What should I expect during recovery?c
Mild redness or tenderness can last a few days. Makeup is usually safe after about one week, and most marks fade steadily over several weeks.
Will I have a noticeable scar?
Our board-certified surgeons use micro-precision techniques and silicone-gel aftercare to keep scars flat and barely visible—many fade to the point you can’t find them.
Can skin tags or moles come back?
Recurrence is uncommon, but if residual cells remain a quick touch-up can eliminate any regrowth.
Is removal covered by insurance?
Purely cosmetic removal is self-pay. Lesions that bleed, itch, or irritate clothing may qualify for coverage—our team will check benefits on your behalf.
Are there any risks?
Minor risks include infection, pigment changes, or regrowth; these occur in fewer than 1 % of cases according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Your surgeon reviews all precautions with you beforehand.
