Condition: Skin Tags

Skin tags are small, benign growths that hang from the skin’s surface. Made up of loose collagen fibres and blood vessels encased in skin, they typically appear flesh-colored or brown.

These growths can range in size from a tiny 1mm bump to the size of a grape and are most commonly found in areas where the skin folds, such as:

  • Neck
  • Armpits
  • Groin
  • Eyelids
  • Under the breasts

While skin tags are painless and non-cancerous, they can become a nuisance if located in areas prone to friction or irritation.

Learn More About Acne Scar Treatment in Our FAQ’s

Acne scars are usually the result of inflamed blemishes that damage the skin’s collagen. Picking or squeezing pimples can also increase the risk of scarring.

The most common types include:

  • Ice pick scars – deep, narrow indentations
  • Boxcar scars – broad, shallow or deep depressions
  • Rolling scars – wave-like or uneven texture
  • Hypertrophic or keloid scars – raised scars

Treatment depends on your scar type, skin type, and severity. Options include microneedling, chemical peels, laser therapy, dermal fillers, and subcision. A consultation with a trained dermatologist or aesthetician will help determine the best plan.

The number of treatments varies depending on the scar type and severity. Some people see improvement in 1–2 sessions, while deeper scars may require 4–6 or more.

Most treatments are well-tolerated. Some procedures may cause mild discomfort or a warm, tingling sensation, but numbing creams or cooling devices are often used to keep you comfortable.

Results vary by treatment, but most people notice improvement within a few weeks. Full results may take several months as collagen rebuilds and skin texture improves.

While no treatment can guarantee 100% removal, modern treatments can significantly reduce their appearance and improve skin texture for smoother, more even-looking skin.

Most treatments are safe for all skin types, but some lasers or chemical peels may require special care for darker skin tones. Always consult with a licensed professional before starting treatment.

Downtime depends on the procedure. Microneedling and mild chemical peels often require minimal downtime, while deeper laser treatments may need several days of recovery.

The best prevention is managing active acne, avoiding picking or squeezing pimples, and following a consistent skincare routine recommended by a professional.
