Are you tired of those pesky little skin tags causing irritation and discomfort? At Hayleys Hair Removal and Aesthetics, we understand the frustration of dealing with skin tags, and we’re here to help you bid farewell to them once and for all. In this blog, we’ll delve into what skin tags are, who is more prone to getting them, what causes them, and how our advanced electrolysis treatment can offer you a permanent solution.

What are Skin Tags?

Skin tags are small, soft, benign growths that protrude from the skin. They are commonly found in areas of friction such as the neck, underarms, groin, and around the breasts. These tiny flaps of skin can often catch on clothing, leading to pain, bleeding, and irritation. While they are harmless, many people opt to have them removed for both cosmetic and comfort reasons.

Who is More Prone to Getting Them?

Skin tags can affect anyone, but certain factors can increase your likelihood of developing them. Individuals who are overweight or obese, pregnant women, those with diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of skin tags are more prone to experiencing them. Additionally, age plays a role, as skin tags tend to become more common as we get older.

What Causes Skin Tags?

Skin tags typically develop in areas where the skin folds or creases, leading to friction against itself. This constant rubbing can cause the skin to bulge and form tags. While the exact cause of skin tags is still not fully understood, several factors can contribute to their formation. These include hormonal changes during pregnancy, obesity, insulin resistance associated with diabetes, and genetic predisposition.

How Can We Treat Them?

At Hayleys Hair Removal and Aesthetics, we offer advanced electrolysis treatment to effectively remove skin tags. Electrolysis is a safe and proven method that works by delivering a small electric current to the base of the skin tag, causing it to dry up and fall off. Often only one treatment is needed to destroy a skin tag. Occasionally a few treatments may be needed – this depends on the size of the skin tag.

If you have quite a few skin tags then you may have to come in for multiple sessions.
