Skin Tag Removal Scottsdale AZ
What are skin growths?
Skin growths are abnormal accumulations of skin cells or tissue that look different from the normal surrounding skin. Some skin growths develop as we age while others can be present at birth (congenital).
Are they safe to remove?
Skin growths are safe to remove by a professional or certified technician.
How is removal done?
A high-frequency electrical micro needle is used to deliver a precise electric current to the skin growth. The micro-needle remains above the skin with the current crossing the gap between the growth and needle to dehydrate the growth. As a result of this treatment, a scab is formed to protect the newly treated area. The normal healing process begins when the scab falls off, new healthy skin will be revealed that will slowly take on the color of surrounding tissue.
What type of growths can be removed?
- Skin Tags
- Age Spots
- Milia
- Sun Spots
- Seborrheric Keratosis
- Cholesterol Deposits
- Cherry Angioma
- Hyper-Pigmentation (non melasma)
Does it hurt?
A numbing cream is applied to the area to be treated. This minimizes any pain felt during treatment, which equates to a pinch or scratch.
How long does it take to heal?
The healing process can take anywhere from 3 to 14 days. The scab will fall off in about 10 to 14 days and the skin will begin to look like the surrounding area after that.
Are the results permanent?
Yes, for that particular growth. If your skin is prone to these types of growths, new ones may appear in the same area and others may continue to appear in other areas of the body.
Treatment Costs:
A consultation is required for all treatments to ensure quality and accurate pricing. Removal of skin growths typically starts at $25 individually and packages are available for removing multiple growths. Larger growths have base prices but due to variation and irregularity of skin, prices vary and will be discussed during the complimentary consultation.
