Skin Tag Removal
Quick, safe, and effective skin tag removal with expert cryotherapy in Nuneaton
Don’t let skin tags get in the way of your confidence. At Crowhill Pharmacy in Nuneaton, our expert cryotherapy treatments target and remove skin tags safely and effectively, leaving your skin clear, smooth, and comfortable.
Skin tags are small, soft, benign growths that often appear on the neck, underarms, eyelids, or other areas of the body. While harmless, they can be irritating, unsightly, or catch on clothing and jewellery. Our trained team provides personalised assessment and treatment, helping you regain smooth, healthy skin quickly and conveniently.
What is Cryotherapy Skin Tag Removal?
Cryotherapy is a method of removing skin tags by applying extreme cold to the affected area. At Crowhill Pharmacy in Nuneaton, our trained pharmacy staff use a controlled cryotherapy wand, typically employing liquid nitrogen or an equivalent cooling agent, to freeze the skin tag tissue safely.
The freezing process destroys the unwanted cells and triggers the body’s natural healing response. Our cryotherapy treatment quickly and effectively removes skin tags, usually in a single session, making it a trusted solution in Nuneaton.
Who Can Benefit from Skin Tag Removal?
Our skin tag removal service in Nuneaton is suitable for adults and children with:
—> Skin tags on the neck, eyelids, underarms, or other accessible areas
—> Skin tags that are irritated by clothing, jewellery, or shaving
—> Larger or multiple skin tags causing discomfort or cosmetic concern
—> Anyone seeking a safe, clinic-based treatment for quick results
Cryotherapy is generally safe, but certain groups may require additional assessment or referral, including:
—> Individuals with diabetes or poor circulation
—> Those taking immunosuppressive medication
—> Skin tags in sensitive areas, such as near the eyes or genitals
—> Anyone uncertain whether a growth is a skin tag
Our pharmacy team will review your medical history and examine the skin tags to ensure cryotherapy is suitable and safe.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
Booking a skin tag removal appointment in Nuneaton at Crowhill Pharmacy is simple and convenient. Here’s what happens during your visit:
1. Booking: Reserve your appointment by phone on 02476 329806 or via our website.
2. Consultation: On arrival, we review your medical history and examine the skin tag(s) to confirm suitability for treatment.
3. Treatment: The area is cleaned and isolated. Our trained team applies the cryotherapy wand to the skin tag for a brief, controlled freeze. You may feel a brief stinging or burning sensation.
4. Aftercare Instructions: A blister or scab may form within 24–48 hours. Our team will provide guidance on caring for the area and what to expect as it heals.
5. Follow-Up: Most skin tags are removed in a single session. For stubborn or larger skin tags, we’ll book a follow-up session while you’re here to ensure complete removal.
Most patients can return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment, and appointments usually take around 15 minutes.
Aftercare Advice
Proper aftercare is essential for effective healing after cryotherapy:
—> Do not pick or peel the treated area; allow any blister or scab to heal naturally.
—> Keep the area clean and dry. Follow any dressing or cream recommendations provided by our staff.
—> Avoid prolonged soaking in baths, swimming, or hot tubs for the first 24 hours if a blister has formed.
—> Monitor for signs of infection, such as spreading redness, pus, or severe pain. Contact the pharmacy or your GP if these occur.
—> Healing may take several days to a few weeks, depending on the size and location of the skin tag.
Our team is always available to answer questions about aftercare and provide reassurance during the healing process.
