Will mole and skin tag removal leave a noticeable scar?

Our radio frequency ablation technique is designed to reduce the risk of scarring far more effectively than traditional mole removal techniques like cutting or laser removal. Radio frequency works by precisely targeting the mole or skin tag tissue, while preserving the surrounding skin, and permanently removing the skin lesion. This gentle approach allows for permanent removal resulting in little to no visible scarring.

Will my skin tag grow back after it has been removed?

No, your skin tag should not grow back after it has been removed. Traditional methods of skin tag removal such as surgical excision or freezing the skin tag off can have a higher chance of regrowth. We use radio frequency ablation to remove skin tags because we want to eliminate any possibility of the skin tag growing back . In rare cases, there is a less than 1% chance of the skin tag growing back. Should this happen for any reason, we will provide you with a follow up appointment and quickly reassess the area.
