Skin tags are common, harmless growths, but they can be annoying when they catch on clothing or jewellery. If you are looking for professional skin tag removal in Clapham, SW11 Medical Clinic offers quick, effective, and aesthetically pleasing solutions under the care of Dr Grzelewski. Our laser removal starts from £400, with same-week appointments available.
Understanding Skin Tags
Skin tags (fibromas) are small, soft pieces of skin that stick out on a thin stalk. They most commonly appear on the neck, armpits, upper chest, and groin. While they are completely benign, many people choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons or to eliminate irritation caused by rubbing against clothing or jewellery.
We offer a comprehensive range of skin treatments. Discover more on our Minor Surgery Overview page, or learn about mole removal if you have other skin concerns.
The Procedure and Recovery
We offer both laser and surgical options for skin tag removal at our Clapham Junction clinic. During your consultation, Dr Grzelewski will recommend the best approach based on the size and location of the tags.
Laser removal is highly effective for smaller skin tags, offering a quick procedure with minimal recovery time. For larger fibromas, surgical excision under local anaesthetic may be required. Both methods are safe, and patients can return to their daily routines immediately. The treated area heals quickly, usually within a week or two.
