Skin Tag Removal: What to Expect During and After the Procedure

Feb 16

Skin tags, though harmless, can be a source of discomfort and self-consciousness. Fortunately, high-temperature plasma technology offers a quick, safe, and effective way to remove them. At The Brow & Beauty Boutique, our expert skin tag removal services provide precise and lasting results. If you're considering this treatment, here's what you can expect during and after the procedure.

What is High-Temperature Plasma Skin Tag Removal?

High-temperature plasma removal uses focused energy to cauterize and remove skin tags without cutting or invasive surgery. This advanced method ensures minimal discomfort, no downtime, and a reduced risk of scarring.

What to Expect During the Procedure

1. Consultation and Assessment

The process begins with a thorough consultation. Our specialists will:

Assess the size, location, and number of skin tags.
Explain the procedure in detail and answer any questions.
Customize a treatment plan to suit your specific needs.

2. Preparation and Numbing

Before the procedure, we apply a numbing cream to the treatment area to ensure maximum comfort. Most clients report feeling little to no discomfort during the treatment.

3. Plasma Removal Procedure

Using a high-temperature plasma device, our skilled technician targets the skin tag with precision. The focused energy cauterizes the tag, causing it to detach naturally over a few days.

Duration: The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes, depending on the number of skin tags.
Sensation: You may feel a slight tingling or warmth as the plasma works, but it’s not painful.

What to Expect After the Procedure

1. Immediate Post-Treatment

Mild redness or a small scab may form at the treatment site.
You can resume normal activities immediately after the session, as there’s no downtime required.

2. Healing Process

Scabbing: The treated area may scab over and fall off naturally within 5-7 days.
Redness: Any redness will fade over the next week.
Smooth Skin: Once healed, the skin will appear smooth and free of the skin tag.

3. Aftercare Instructions

To ensure optimal healing and results, follow these simple aftercare guidelines:

Avoid Touching: Don’t pick at scabs; let them fall off naturally.
Sun Protection: Apply sunscreen to prevent pigmentation changes in the treated area.
Moisturize: Use a gentle moisturizer to keep the area hydrated.
Avoid Harsh Products: Refrain from using exfoliants or harsh skincare products during the healing period.
