Skin tags—also known as acrochordons—are small, soft growths that often appear on the neck, eyelids, armpits, groin, and under the breasts. While harmless, they can become irritated by clothing or jewelry and may cause cosmetic concerns. At Natura Dermatology in Fort Lauderdale, our board-certified dermatologists offer professional skin tag removal using safe, in-office procedures tailored to your comfort and skin type. Whether you have one or several tags, we provide fast, minimally invasive treatment to restore smooth, healthy skin.
Professional skin tag removal ensures clean, effective results that minimize the risk of regrowth, scarring, or infection. At Natura Dermatology, we tailor every treatment to your skin type and personal comfort, ensuring the best outcome whether you’re addressing one tag or many. Unlike home remedies, which can irritate or damage skin, our medically supervised procedures are quick, safe, and precise. With the right approach, removal is not only simple—it’s a long-term solution that restores confidence and eliminates daily irritation from rubbing or snagging.
Not every skin growth is a tag. Our Fort Lauderdale dermatologists carefully examine the area to ensure the lesion is benign and determine the most appropriate treatment method. If anything appears unusual, we may recommend a biopsy for confirmation.
Depending on the size and location, we may use cryotherapy (freezing), snip excision, or electrocautery to remove the skin tag. These methods are fast, cause minimal discomfort, and are typically performed without stitches.
Most patients experience little to no recovery time after treatment. Our removal techniques are designed to minimize scarring and reduce the risk of skin discoloration or regrowth.
Removing skin tags can help reduce friction-related irritation and improve the overall look and feel of your skin—especially in visible or sensitive areas like the face and neck.
Skin tags are non-cancerous and often appear in areas where skin rubs together. While they are not dangerous, our dermatologists help assess your risk and explain potential contributing factors, such as:
Inherited Traits – Individuals with close family members who develop skin tags are more likely to experience them as well
Friction or Chafing – Often from clothing, movement, or folds of skin
Hormonal Changes – Common during pregnancy or with age
Obesity or Insulin Resistance – Associated with higher incidence of tags
Skin Irritation – Repeated rubbing or jewelry contact may trigger growths
At Natura Dermatology, we take a holistic view to help manage both the symptoms and the cause.
From your first visit to post-treatment care, every step is designed with your comfort in mind. After a dermatologist confirms the growth is a skin tag, we offer the removal method best suited to its location and size. In most cases, the procedure is painless, requires no downtime, and leaves behind minimal to no visible marks. You’ll receive personalized aftercare instructions and can return to work, errands, or social events right away. At Natura Dermatology, we make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Your appointment starts with an expert consultation from one of our experienced dermatologists in Fort Lauderdale. We’ll assess your skin tags, explain treatment options, and address any questions about the process.
We perform skin tag removal right in our clinic using your preferred method—whether it’s freezing, snipping, or cauterizing. The entire treatment typically takes just a few minutes, and patients can return to daily activities immediately.
After removal, we provide instructions on how to care for the area. Healing is generally fast, with minimal redness or tenderness. Follow-up visits are rarely needed unless you experience recurring tags.
