Skin Tag Removal

Skin tags, also known as acrochordons, are small, benign growths that commonly occur on the skin. They are typically soft, flesh-colored or slightly darker, and have a smooth or slightly wrinkled appearance. While non-cancerous and are usually painless, they can sometimes be bothersome due to their location or rubbing against clothing or jewelry. Skin tags often develop in areas where the skin folds or rubs together, such as the neck, armpits, groin, and eyelids.

At Puresthetics, we provide personalized skin tag removal treatments tailored to your skin. Our professionals will assess your skin condition, ensuring a safe and appropriate approach for removing the tags. With stringent attention to detail, we minimize the risk of scarring or other complications.

What is DPN?

Dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN) is a common benign skin condition that primarily affects individuals with darker skin tones, particularly people of African or African-American descent. DPN is characterized by small, dark or black papules that appear on the face, most commonly on the cheeks and around the eyes.

The exact cause of DPN is unknown, but it is believed to be a genetic condition with a tendency to run in families. The papules typically start to develop in adolescence and gradually increase in number and size over time. Although dermatosis papulosa nigra is harmless and does not pose any health risks, individuals may seek treatment for cosmetic reasons or if the lesions become bothersome. Reach out to us today to book your consultation and discuss DPN treatment.

Answers to Your Skin Tag FAQs

Friction, genetics, hormonal changes, obesity, age, and diabetes are all suspected to contribute to causing skin tags due to a number of overlapping factors.
We do not recommend this as it may be painful and bleed. Home remedies for skin tags can cause infection if not properly cared for. The method of at-home skin tag removal can also affect your likelihood of scarring. To painlessly eliminate skin tags without leaving a trace, trust your local med spa instead.
After skin tag removal using electrotherapy, a scab will form at the site of treatment. It is important to keep the area clean and apply antiseptic cream to prevent infection. The scab will typically fall off on its own within 7-10 days. It is safe to carry on with your normal activities after the treatment, as the healing process is quick and the pain is minimal. With just one treatment, skin tags are completely removed, leaving the skin smooth and tag-free.
Most small growths are harmless and don’t require treatment unless they become irritated or painful. Removal may be recommended if they interfere with clothing or movement. If the lesion changes in size, bleeds, or causes discomfort, evaluation by a provider is advised to rule out risk factors and determine the best care.
Yes. Conditions like dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN) are more common in people with darker skin, often appearing as skin colored spots on the face or neck. Though usually harmless, these may be removed for comfort or appearance based on location and number.
Yes. Surgical treatment may be used if the lesion is large, near blood vessels, or doesn’t respond to other methods. This approach is quick, effective, and often done in-office with minimal recovery.
While usually painless, they can cause irritation or pelvic pain if located near sensitive areas like the groin. If symptoms develop or worsen, removal may improve comfort and prevent further issues.

At Puresthetics, each treatment is customized to your unique needs, so we recommend scheduling a consultation for an accurate quote.
