Skin Tag & Wart Removal

Skin Tag & Wart Removal: Quick, Safe, and Effective Treatment

Skin tags, warts, and other benign skin growths are extremely common and often develop in areas of friction or sun exposure. While harmless, these growths can be cosmetically bothersome or cause irritation. At Sapphire Skin Clinic, we offer multiple advanced techniques for quick and effective removal with minimal downtime.

Conditions We Treat

Skin Tags (Acrochordons) Small, soft, flesh-colored growths that typically appear on the neck, underarms, eyelids, and body folds. They’re harmless but can become irritated by clothing or jewelry.

• Flat Warts - Smooth, flat-topped lesions often on face and legs
• Plantar Warts - Growths on the soles of feet
• Filiform Warts - Thread-like warts around the face

Other Benign Growths

• Seborrheic keratoses (age spots)

• Milia (tiny white cysts)
