Advanced Electrolysis
Skin Tag Removal with Advanced Electrolysis in Leicester
City Laser & Skin Clinic in Leicester offers Advanced Electrolysis – a fast, safe, and effective method to remove unwanted skin tags.
This non-invasive treatment uses a tiny probe with an electric current to cauterise and remove skin tags instantly, leaving the surrounding skin unaffected. The results are immediate, and once removed, skin tags will not reappear in the same area.
If you are new to the clinic, please book a detailed consultation so we can better assess your needs. Consultations involve the use of a skin scanner which uses UV light to provide a detailed view beneath the skin’s surface, revealing underlying issues before they become visible. Consultatikons and appointments can be booked online, or please call us on 0116 242 5299.
What Are Skin Tags?
Skin tags are small, benign growths that can appear anywhere on the body. They are soft, hanging protrusions of skin made up of loose fibrous tissue. While harmless, they can be bothersome due to their location, size, or appearance. Skin tags are common and can be found on people of all ages, though they are more frequently seen in older individuals, those who are overweight, pregnant women, and people with diabetes.
The exact cause of skin tags is still under discussion, but some research suggests a possible link to the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). They tend to develop in areas where friction occurs, such as:
- Neck – due to necklaces, collars, and scarves rubbing against the skin.
- Underarms – caused by the natural movement of the arms or friction from clothing.
- Under the breasts – particularly in women where skin folds create friction.
- Groin area – where skin constantly rubs together.
- Eyelids and around the eyes – in some cases, skin tags may even develop between eyelashes, affecting vision.
