Skin Tags, Warts & Moles

Skin tags are harmless small flesh coloured growths of various sizes and shapes that hang off normal skin at different parts of the body but mainly seen on the face, neck, underarms and back and around the groin area. Most people get them as they grow older and obese people are more likely to have them in greater numbers. Warts may look very similar to tags but they can be contagious as they are viral in origin. They are aesthetically a nuisance and sometimes also get caught in clothing and jewellery so removal is a practical option
