Although skin tags are harmless, they can be bothersome and affect your comfort. Fortunately, at Medicart Ottawa Vein & Aesthetics, we offer a quick, safe, and effective solution to get rid of them: removal by cauterization.

Skin tag removal by cauterization at Medicart Ottawa for smooth and even skin.

A Simple and Safe Treatment

Skin tags are small skin growths that can appear on anyone, primarily in areas where the skin experiences friction, such as skin folds. Whether located on the neck, eyelids, armpits, or under the breasts, these growths can be unsightly and uncomfortable.

With cauterization, we precisely and effectively remove skin tags without damaging healthy skin. This treatment, performed by an experienced medical team, lasts only 15 minutes and is painless. No recovery time is needed, and the risks of scarring or depigmentation are minimized, ensuring natural and harmonious results.

Don’t let these small imperfections disrupt your daily life. Achieving smooth, even, and flawless skin is within your reach.

    FAQ

    While the exact cause of skin tags is still unknown, several factors may contribute to their appearance. These include pregnancy, diabetes, overweight, obesity, aging, and genetic factors, as hereditary predisposition may also play a role.
    During your appointment, our doctor will first examine the skin tags you wish to have removed. The treatment is performed via cauterization. The doctor uses a small cautery tool to eliminate the skin tags. A clamp may also be used to facilitate the removal. After the procedure, a scab forms on the treated area and will fall off naturally within 7 to 10 days.
    Although they are benign and do not always require medical treatment, skin tags typically do not disappear on their own. In some cases, they may detach naturally over time, but this is rare and often very slow. If a skin tag bothers you, it is advisable to consider a treatment, such as cauterization, to remove it quickly and safely.
    Skin tags are generally not painful. However, if they are located in areas prone to friction or irritation, such as skin folds, they may sometimes become sensitive, swollen, or cause slight discomfort. In rare cases, they may bleed if accidentally pulled or irritated. If a skin tag becomes painful or uncomfortable, it is recommended to consult a professional.
