Skin Tag Removal in Dundee

At Renu Health and Wellness, skin tag removal is a quick procedure with minimal downtime. After Radiowave Surgery, you may experience mild redness or swelling, which usually settles within a few days. The area should be kept clean, and a topical ointment may be recommended.

After Cryotherapy, the skin may appear red or blister briefly, forming a small scab as it heals naturally.

Most patients notice smoother, clearer skin within days,

Most patients find the procedure very tolerable. For radiowave surgery, a local anaesthetic is used to numb the area, so you won’t feel pain during treatment.

Cryotherapy typically requires no anaesthetic and may cause a brief stinging or cold sensation. Any post-treatment discomfort is usually mild and short-lived.

The procedure is usually quick and straightforward. Depending on the size and number of skin tags being treated, it typically takes between 15 to 30 minutes. Most treatments are completed in a single visit.

Scarring is uncommon. Our experienced medical team uses precise techniques to reduce any risk, and if marks do occur, they’re typically small and fade with time as the skin heals.

In most cases, skin tags do not return once removed. However, some individuals may be prone to developing new skin tags over time, especially in areas of friction or hormonal change.

If new tags appear, they can be easily treated with the same safe and effective methods.

Most people are suitable candidates, but certain conditions or allergies to anaesthetics may affect your eligibility. A consultation will help determine your suitability and address any concerns.

After the procedure, we recommend keeping the area clean and dry for a few days and avoiding swimming, heavy sweating, or applying makeup or perfumed products directly to the treated area until it heals. Most patients can return to normal activities immediately, with minimal disruption.

Yes, skin tags around the delicate eye area can be safely and effectively removed at Renu Health and Wellness. For these sensitive regions, we use a specialised technique called Ellman® Radiowave Surgery—a precise and gentle method that minimises damage to the surrounding skin.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic to ensure your comfort, and is ideal for areas like the eyelids, where cryotherapy would not be suitable. Our medical team is highly experienced in treating facial skin tags with care, precision, and excellent cosmetic results.

At Renu Health and Wellness, your safety is our priority. Before any removal, our nurse will carefully assess the lesion using dermoscopy, a specialised tool that allows us to examine the skin in detail. This ensures the lesion is indeed a benign skin tag and suitable for treatment. If there’s any doubt, we’ll guide you on the appropriate next steps.

At Renu Health and Wellness, we offer skin tag removal using two safe and effective methods: cryotherapy and Ellman® radiowave surgery. Pricing and method depend on the size, location, and number of tags. Please see our prices page here.
