What Is A Skin Tag?

A skin tag, acrochordon, or soft fibroma is a common noncancerous, painless skin growth (benign tumor) that is loosely suspended by a short, thin stalk called a “peduncle.” It contains blood vessels and collagen tissue.

Skin tags typically occur among skin folds including, armpits, under the breasts, neck, eyelids, and groin. They can be either smooth or irregular.

Although skin tags are harmless, they can be irritating and not aesthetically desirable. This is why Lumiskins provides you with safe, noninvasive procedures to remove skin tags in Toronto and help you regain your natural and desirable looks.

What Causes Skin Tag?

The exact cause of skin tags is unknown. However, several predisposing factors increase the risk of acquiring skin tags. They include:

  • Age– skin tags are more common as people age. They are more common in middle-aged people and tend to increase with age. They are rare in children and infants, but they can occur around the neck area or underarm due to rubbing of the skin.
  • Pregnancy– Pregnant women have high levels of hormones and gain weight, which increases skin tag occurrence. Numerous skin tags in pregnant women, rarely, can be a sign of an endocrine problem or hormonal imbalance.
  • Weight– skin tags are more common in overweight or obese people. They are usually present in large numbers.
  • Family history– if you have several family members who have skin tags, then you’re at a higher risk of getting one
  • Underlying Conditions– According to research, certain diseases such as HPV and insulin resistance increase the risk of acquiring skin tags. A study done in 2010 using 37 skin tags from different parts of the body found that almost 50 perfect of these tags had HPV DNA in them.
  • Genetic mutation– skin tags can also be rarely linked to rare genetic conditions, including Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) and Polycystic ovary syndrome.

Note: If you have a skin growth that itches, bleeds or keeps changing color, get in touch with your doctor immediately. It may be a sign of a severe condition, including skin cancer.

Skin Tag Removal Methods In Toronto

Most skin tags are not a cause for alarm. However, they can be a nuisance, unappealing, and stubborn. In this case, they can be removed for cosmetic purposes and to eliminate the irritation they cause. Although there are many home remedies that you can utilize to remove them, you should consult an expert before trying to remove your skin tags. One of the reasons you should seek an expert cosmetologist is because most home remedies fail and leave you disappointed. Another reason is that there are safer and sure ways of removing skin tags.

At Lumiskins, we utilize the best and most advanced skin tag removal techniques. They leave you with minimal to no scarring and restore your natural look. Our skin tag removal methods include:

Thermal Coagulation or Electrocautery

Electrocautery, also known as thermal cautery, is a popular and efficient method for removing skin tags. This technique involves the use of direct or pulsed electric current to heat a resistant metallic wire electrode. The heated electrode is then placed on the skin tag, causing the tissue to break down and ultimately leading to its removal.

The advantages of thermal coagulation or electrocautery include precise application, rapid results, and minimal discomfort during the procedure. The heat generated by the electrode allows for accurate targeting of the skin tag, reducing the risk of damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. The process itself is relatively quick, typically lasting only a few minutes per skin tag, and clients often experience immediate improvements in their skin’s appearance.

Our team of expert cosmetologists at Lumiskins is well-versed in the electrocautery process, ensuring the utmost safety and satisfaction for our clients. We carefully assess each case to determine the most appropriate removal method, taking into account factors such as the size, location, and number of skin tags. Our professionals employ state-of-the-art equipment and adhere to strict hygiene standards, prioritizing client comfort and well-being throughout the procedure.

After the skin tag removal, our team provides comprehensive aftercare instructions to promote optimal healing and prevent potential complications, such as infection or scarring. We also offer follow-up appointments to monitor the progress of the healing process and address any concerns our clients may have.

I am only at the beginning of my skincare journey with Lumiskins, but so far it has been a great experience and great results!!!! Very clean and friendly salon. Every step and procedure is discussed in detail, nothing is being pushed on you. I just really feel that I am being treated very individually and all my skin problems and concerns are being taken into account. Since i have very sensitive and acne prone skin, it is very important to me. I hope this will grow into a long lasting relationship and that I finally found a place for all my skincare concerns!

Highly recommend!I visited on March 20 for two mole removals (to flatten a small bump and remove a surface level pigmented dot size).Nana and Mila were sooooo incredibly kind and helpful! Nana handled the removal gently and carefully, and stayed at the front to chat about my other concerns after the removal. Svetlana kindly came into the room to check my mole with Nana very briefly. Mila recommended products to help with my concerns of redness on the cheeks. She was very informative and kind. The products are working great, and the redness has gone down significantly.The smaller, surface level mole healed quickly (within 5 days). The slightly raised one is still healing (currently day 17). I think I'll only need 1 more touch up. The area still has some redness/darkened skin as it's healing, but it's getting better.Overall, very happy with my experience at Lumiskins! Everyone was funny and kind. Will come back for more. (:

FAQ

Skin Tag Removal Frequently Asked Questions

The skin tag removal procedures mentioned above, i.e., cryotherapy and electrocautery, lead to the destruction and elimination of the skin tag tissue. If the procedures are done by a professional, minimal to no scarring occur. Book an appointment with us, get examined, and the suitable procedure as per your skin tags will be explained in detail.
The noninvasive procedures that we utilize at Lumiskins ensure total destruction of the skin tag tissue (Blood vessels and Collagen). Therefore, the skin tags removed have a minimal to zero chance of recurring. However, skin tags associated with underlying conditions such as genetic mutations, obesity, and insulin resistance can recur at different sites (Rarely at the same sight).

The time taken during skin tag removal depends on the type of procedure, the number of skin tags, and the size of the skin tags. Also, depending on the size of skin tags, one may require more than one visit to our clinic.

Book an appointment to learn how long your skin tag procedure will take.

A local anesthetic is normally applied during skin tag removal. A skin tag procedure such as electrocautery involves burning of the skin tag tissue, which is painful if done without numbing the target area first.

At Lumiskins, our clients’ happiness and comfort come first. Book an appointment and get a painless, noninvasive skin tag removal.

The skin tag removal procedures utilized at Lumiskins are noninvasive. This means that you can get back to work the day after the procedure.

However, in cases where the skin tags are in sensitive areas, you can take more time to recover. On average, full recovery takes up to ten days.

Because our procedures are non-surgical, you can get back to your regular exercise the day after undergoing the skin tag removal procedure. However, if the skin tag removed was in a sensitive area that can affect your performance, you should wait for a full recovery.
