Skin Tag Removal in Northampton
Skin tags are small, benign growths that form when the skin rubs together, or is irritated by clothing or jewellery. Commonly appearing on your eyelids, underarms and the neck area, they are usually the same colour as your skin, but some can be slightly darker.​ Even though they are harmless, they can become painful, bleed or start to affect your self confidence. If you’re wanting to remove your skin tag, The Blemish Clinic offers skin tag treatment in the form of advanced electrolysis, which is a quick and relatively painless option.​

Skin Tag Removal Techniques
Many people try at-home remedies for skin tag treatment, however, these are often unsuccessful and can lead to other problems, including bleeding and infection. It’s best to consult with professionals at a skin tag removal clinic for personalised advice.
​
Whilst there are many skin tag treatments available, advanced electrolysis is a preferred method due to its effectiveness and performance. This treatment removes skin tags in a safe way, for blemish-free skin. ​
​
If you’re considering skin tag removal at a private clinic in Northampton, we’ll first need to have a consultation. This will allow us to identify the suitability of the skin blemish, the time required for treatment, quotation and procedure description. We will walk you through what the removal process typically looks like and be on hand if you would like any follow up advice, or notice anything unusual after the treatment.​

The Process of Advanced Electrolysis
Advanced electrolysis as a skin tag treatment offers a quick, hassle-free, and long-lasting solution that is suitable for almost all skin types. This targeted solution is effective in even the most delicate areas and can be completed on eyelid skin tags, or those around the genitalia.
​
This treatment includes low-voltage current, which is applied to the area through a fine probe. Most patients don’t feel anything during the session, but some feel the area become warmer or experience a tingling sensation.
​
Once the session is over, it can take 7 to 14 days for the scab to heal and your skin to return to normal. During this time, feel free to contact us if you experience anything unusual or have any concerns.

I was so pleased Charlotte could remove a mole I’d had (and hated) my whole life. It was a simple straight forward procedure and I was really happy with results. I would highly recommend Charlotte.

Charlotte removed a blood spot from my nose, it was causing me to not have confidence and kept bleeding, Charlotte was amazing and professional and explained everything including aftercare.

Tips for Before & Aftercare
Our care doesn't end when you leave our clinic after your blemish treatment. We are here to support you and will continue to answer your questions to make sure your recovery period is smooth.
Before Your Skin Tag Removal
​It’s important to prepare your skin before the procedure and avoid using any chemical-based products on the concerned area for one week prior to the treatment.
At your consultation, we will run through all of this with you.
Skin Tag Treatment Aftercare
Following the skin tag treatment, you’ll notice a scab formation, which falls off on its own in its own time.
It’s important to avoid picking at these scabs, as it can irritate the skin further. If a follow-up session is required, we’ll inform you when to do this.
What Are Skin Tags?
Skin tags are soft, benign skin-coloured growths that appear in areas of your body where the skin rubs together or folds are present, like your underarms. Their appearance can vary, but they typically hang off the skin surface and measure anywhere from 1mm to a few centimetres. ​
​
Skin tags are made of collagen fibres and small blood vessels or capillaries and are extremely common among adults. Research indicates that at least 50% of adults will develop at least one skin tag in their lifetime.
​
Skin tags can grow in size across their lifetime, and the rate at which they grow will depend on individual factors. They are mostly harmless and can be easily treated at The Blemish Clinic.
​
What Causes Skin Tags?
The exact cause of skin tags (medically known as acrochordons) is not clear, however it is generally noted that they appear in areas where the skin experiences constant friction. This leads to collagen and blood vessels getting trapped under the thick skin, leading to a growth.
​
You are more likely to get skin tags if your parents or siblings have them, as they are often inherited. If you suffer from obesity, PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), diabetes or are pregnant, you may also notice an increase in skin tag formation.
