Treatment at City Aesthetics Clinic, 5 Saville Place, Newcastle NE1 8DQ.
Skin tags are small, soft flaps of skin that hang from the surface. They're harmless and very common, especially on the neck, armpits, eyelids, under the bra line and in the groin.
They don't need treating for health reasons, which is why the NHS rarely removes them. But many people want them gone because they:
If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. Skin tags are one of the most common things people ask us to treat.
We use advanced electrolysis: a very fine probe delivers a tiny, precise current that seals the base and removes the skin tag. Treatment takes place at City Aesthetics Clinic in Newcastle city centre.
What it feels like: most people describe a quick hot pinprick and find it very tolerable. Some people find it uncomfortable, and some areas are more sensitive than others.
Aftercare: keep the area clean and dry, and avoid picking. Your nurse will explain everything before you leave. There's no downtime, so you can carry on with your usual day straight after.
You'll always be treated by one of two registered nurses, Emma or Jane, never a trainee or a rotating team.
Emma studied Adult Nursing at Northumbria University, qualifying in 2020, then began her career as a urology nurse, building strong clinical skills. She has worked in aesthetics since 2021 and finds supporting patients through their treatment a privilege. She is trained in advanced electrolysis.
Jane has over 35 years' nursing experience in the NHS, in surgical and medical care. She trained as an aesthetic practitioner in Harley Street, London, and has more than 9 years' aesthetic experience, with advanced training from leading national and international practitioners. She is trained in advanced electrolysis.
Treatment takes place at City Aesthetics Clinic, an independent, family-run clinic in Newcastle city centre, rated Good by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
You pay per 30-minute visit, not per skin tag, so you can have several treated for one price.
| What's included | Price |
|---|---|
| 30-minute session: free consultation plus as many skin tags as time allows | £150 |
| Free review appointment within 8 weeks, if anything needs a touch-up | Free |
The price stays the same however many skin tags are treated in the session. No packages to buy upfront and no pressure to book on the day.
Our nurses also treat other common skin concerns. Each treatment type is booked as its own 30-minute appointment, so your nurse can give it their full attention.
Most people find it very tolerable. It feels like a quick hot pinprick and each tag takes a minute or two. Some people find it uncomfortable, and some areas are more sensitive than others.
Advanced electrolysis seals the tag as it works, so bleeding is rare. You may have a small pink mark or tiny scab for a few days while it heals. As with any skin treatment, there is a small risk of scarring that can't be ruled out. Your nurse will explain what you can expect at your consultation.
Yes. Eyelid skin tags are treated carefully by our nurses and are one of the most common areas we see.
Yes, discreetly and in private. Just mention it when you book, or at your consultation.
Skin tags are harmless, so the NHS usually treats removal as cosmetic. If a GP has told you this, private treatment is the usual next step. Read more about skin tag removal on the NHS.
Skin tags are harmless. But if you have any concerns, we always encourage you to visit your GP or healthcare provider first, especially if a mark is changing, bleeding, or you're not sure what it is. Our nurses won't treat anything that needs checking by a doctor. Read more about whether skin tags are cancerous.
Home kits and threads can cause bleeding, infection or scarring, especially near the eyes. It can be much safer and more effective to be treated by a professional. Read more about home removal compared with clinic treatment.
Everyone is different, so we can't promise they won't come back. Treated skin tags can return, and new ones may grow over time. Your nurse will talk you through what to expect.
Usually one. About 95% of people have everything treated in a single 30-minute visit, with a free review within 8 weeks if anything needs a touch-up.
No. You pay per visit, with no upfront packages. Everything is fully explained at your consultation, so you understand the cost and there are no surprises.
