Skin Tags vs. Moles

Skin tags and moles are both common skin growths, but they have distinct characteristics and differences.

Skin Tags:

  • Skin tags are small, soft, and typically flesh-coloured growths that protrude from the skin.
  • They often appear in areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing, such as the neck and underarms.
  • Skin tags are non-cancerous and are usually painless, although they may occasionally become irritated or inflamed.
  • They are typically not present at birth but develop over time.

Moles:

  • Moles are pigmented growths that can vary in colour, size, and shape. They are usually brown or black
  • Moles can appear anywhere on the body and are usually round or oval in shape.
  • Some moles are present at birth, while others develop later in life because of sun exposure and genetics.
  • While most moles are benign (non-cancerous), you should check your moles for changes in size, shape, colour, or hair growing out of it as certain changes can indicate skin cancer (melanoma).

Why You Need This Procedure & How We Can Help

  • Quick and effective painless treatment with a short recovery time
  • Removal using exceptional electrolysis and surgical methods 
  • Suitable for all skin types – both men and women
  • Free bespoke skincare consultation from skilled aestheticians

Skin tags and moles on the face and body are extremely commonplace. The majority of moles are benign (i.e. medically harmless and non-cancerous) and cause no lasting harm. 

However, some may become a problem when they are itchy, large or raised. Over time, irritation occurs with moles and skin tags as they rub or catch onto clothing or change shape, size, and colour.

Moles can also impact your everyday grooming tasks, like shaving or applying make-up, gradually making it difficult over time.

If you’re thinking of having your skin tags or moles removed for aesthetic or practical reasons, then our bespoke treatment could be the answer. Pave your way to smooth and radiant skin.

The Procedure

At our London clinic, skin tag and mole removals are very simple procedures.

The area around the unwanted skin tag or mole is thoroughly cleansed and made clinically sterile before a local anaesthetic injection is administered around the mole (this is for numbing the area).

When the area becomes completely numb, the surgeon gently removes the mole or skin tag using the appropriate surgical or electro-cautery instrument depending on their size. We will apply a sterile dressing before you are ready to leave the clinic.

With every procedure, we make sure to minimise any scarring that occurs from the removal. Wimpole Aesthetics are specialists in skin and mole analysis and in the removal of moles and skin tags. We take everything into consideration when delivering your treatment, including any health and medical concerns.

What happens after?

Discomfort after the procedure is rare because the skin has a natural ability to heal rapidly. You may experience some initial redness, swelling, and a small scar, but these are common side effects that should not raise any alarm. 

If necessary, you will receive post-procedure medication and have a scheduled follow-up appointment for further care.

How long do the results last? 

The results are permanent. When we completely remove a mole, it is typically not expected to grow back in the same location. However, some mole cells may remain behind or new mole cells may develop in the same area, resulting in a small chance of recurrence.

How Much Does The Procedure Cost?

Our Doctors

Dr Josh Berkowitz - Medical Doctor

In his role as the Founder and Medical Director of our clinic, Dr. Joshua Berkowitz adopts a hands-on approach by directly overseeing the training of our nursing support staff and aestheticians.

Dr Natalie Hammer

Dr. Natalie Hammer, an Aesthetic Medicine Practitioner from the United States, is a registered doctor with 14 years of experience, including 8 years in aesthetics.

The time needed for mole (or moles) or skin tag removal is dependent upon their size and position on your body. Mole removal treatment can usually be done within an hour. If there are any concerns about the character of the mole or lesion, it will be sent to the laboratory for a histological examination which will generate a separate lab fee.

There is seldom any pain during and after the procedure due to the skin’s natural ability to heal quickly. Some initial redness or swelling may occur at first, alongside a small scar that will gradually fade. These are all ordinary side effects and shouldn’t be cause for concern.

You will be given any post-procedure medication if needed along with an arranged follow-up visit.

Cost is dependent upon the nature and complexity of the procedure, as well as the time and materials needed to perform the procedure. If you are interested in skin tag or mole removal, we look forward to being of assistance to you.

Book a free complimentary consultation today to discuss your skin tag and mole removal and we’ll help you pave the way to smooth and radiant skin.

What our patients say

Natalie and Dr Josh have been incredible in boosting my confidence and my skin! They truly listen and deliver 100% natural results every time. Natalie is completely honest, professional, has integrity and that’s why I trust her fully. Wimpole clinic have a much greater range of cutting edge treatments beyond anti wrinkle treatment that have resulted in my skin improving with age. It’s mad but true. They always assess what is right for my face and my skin on the day and advise according to what my skin needs. I’ve been going to Wimpole Aesthetics for years now, initially drawn to their incredible IV boosts but am now unable to ever turn back. Class, quality and aesthetic results that are truly worth it!!!

Dr Josh is a caring and knowledgeable doctor, his consultation is very detailed, he answered all the questions that I am concerned. Dr Natalie did the filler and skin booster, she takes care of me a lot, even after the treatment she still cares about me, I booked the review after two weeks, highly recommended! Btw, they have a Chinese speaking staff so don’t worry if you are not familiar with medical terminology!

I have been living with scarring above my upper lip, as a result of electrolysis treatment 25 years ago, in the form of a deep vertical line and small indentations in the skin. I sought help from Wimpole Aesthetics, and from the moment that I entered the small, personal clinic I was totally put at ease and welcomed by the extremely professional and friendly team. I received a course of Mesotherapy and Dermapen treatment and am absolutely delighted with the results. I had almost given up on ever having smooth line-free skin above my upper lip again. I highly recommend letting Wimpole Aesthetics take care of you.

5 star

Having lived in Australia for over 10 years, my skin had suffered mild sun-damage and had developed a lot of discolouration on my face in particular. Also, as I approached the age of 40, I noticed a lot of wrinkles appearing! I decided to have Microdermabrasion treatment and the improvements after just 3 treatments were extremely encouraging. I have booked a further 2 treatments in coming months and I am so excited about seeing further benefits to the look and texture of my skin.
