Skin tag removal is a fast, non-surgical cosmetic procedure used to eliminate benign skin growths called skin tags, also known as acrochordons. These small, soft bumps often appear on areas of the body where skin rubs against skin or clothing, such as the neck, underarms, groin, chest, or eyelids. While skin tags are medically harmless, many individuals choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons, to prevent irritation, or to improve comfort.
At Goals, we specialize in precise, minimally invasive removal of skin tags using methods such as medical excision or electrocautery. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and takes just a few minutes, with no stitches or extended recovery time required. Most patients experience immediate cosmetic improvement and leave with visibly clearer skin the same day.
You may be a good candidate for skin tag removal if:
Skin tags are typically caused by friction, weight gain, hormonal changes, and genetics. They are more common in individuals over 30, during pregnancy, and in people with insulin resistance or obesity. They tend to develop in areas where skin folds or rubs together, such as the neck, underarms, groin, or under the breasts.
No. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you will not feel pain during the treatment. You may experience a brief stinging sensation during numbing, and slight sensitivity or redness afterward, which typically resolves within a few days.
Most skin tag removals are completed in less than 15 minutes. If you have multiple skin tags to be removed, the procedure may take slightly longer. You can return to your normal routine immediately after treatment.
Once a skin tag is completely removed, it will not grow back in the same spot. However, new skin tags may develop over time in other areas of the body, especially if you are genetically prone to them. Regular skincare and reducing friction in problem areas may help prevent future growths.
Yes. At Goals, we treat all skin types and tones with safe, effective methods that minimize the risk of scarring or pigmentation changes. Our providers are trained to use techniques that protect the surrounding skin while delivering excellent cosmetic results.
Pricing depends on the number and size of skin tags being removed, as well as the chosen removal method. During your consultation, we will provide a personalized treatment quote. In most cases, skin tag removal is considered a cosmetic procedure and is not covered by insurance.
After removal, the treated area should be kept clean and dry. You may be instructed to apply an antibiotic ointment or healing gel. A small scab may form and fall off naturally within 5 to 10 days. Most patients experience no scarring.
Yes. Many clients choose to combine skin tag removal with mole removal, laser treatments, or facial rejuvenation services. During your visit, we can customize a treatment plan that aligns with your skin goals.
