Skin Growths and Skin Tag Removal

At DMC Aesthetics in Tucson, Arizona, we understand how concerning it can be to notice new skin growths, especially when they appear in visible or sensitive areas. Whether you’re dealing with harmless skin tags, growths under the skin, or textured spots such as seborrheic keratosis, our board-certified dermatology team is here to evaluate and remove them safely and effectively.

What Are Skin Growths, Skin Tags, and Seborrheic Keratosis?

Skin growths come in many forms, and while most are benign (non-cancerous), they can be uncomfortable, irritating, or cosmetically unwanted. The most common types include:

  • Skin Tags: Small, soft, flesh-colored growths that hang off the skin—often found on the neck, underarms, eyelids, or groin. These are harmless but can catch on clothing or jewelry.
  • Seborrheic Keratosis: Often mistaken for moles or warts, these are waxy, raised, brown or black growths that tend to appear with age. They’re not contagious or cancerous, but they can be bothersome or cosmetically undesirable.
    Other Benign Skin
  • Growths: Lumps under the skin or growths on the face, back, or body may result from clogged pores, cysts, or skin friction.

 

While many of these skin growths are non-threatening, a professional evaluation is always recommended, especially if the growth changes in size, color, or texture.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Skin Growth Removal

At DMC Aesthetics, we focus on accurate diagnosis and gentle, effective removal of unwanted skin growths. Whether for comfort or cosmetic reasons, our treatments are designed to be safe, quick, and minimally invasive.

Diagnostic Evaluation

Your first step is a thorough skin assessment to determine the type and origin of your skin growth. This includes:

  • Visual and tactile examination of the growth or lesion
  • Dermatoscopic imaging, if needed, to assess deeper skin layers
  • Patient history review to identify potential causes or changes

 

If a growth appears suspicious, we may recommend a biopsy or referral for further evaluation.

Customized Treatment Options

Treatment is tailored based on the type, size, and location of the skin growth. Options include:

  • Cryotherapy (Freezing): Liquid nitrogen is used to freeze off skin tags or keratoses, causing them to fall off naturally.
  • Electrocautery: A heated tool removes the skin growth while sealing the surrounding tissue.
  • Shave Removal or Excision: Performed with precision under local anesthesia for larger or raised growths.
  • Topical Treatments: For select cases, medicated creams or solutions may be used to shrink or dissolve growths.
  • Post-Treatment Skincare Guidance: We provide aftercare instructions to support healing and minimize scarring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Skin tags are often caused by friction, such as skin rubbing against skin or clothing. They are more common in individuals with diabetes, obesity, or hormonal changes.

Professional removal options include cryotherapy, cauterization, and excision. Over-the-counter skin tag removal creams and kits exist, but they may not be effective or safe for all skin types.

Seborrheic keratosis is a non-cancerous skin growth that appears as a brown, black, or tan spot with a waxy, stuck-on appearance. It is common with aging and typically harmless.

Cryotherapy, curettage (scraping), and electrosurgery are among the most effective treatments. Your dermatologist will recommend the safest and most effective option for your skin.

Most removal treatments, such as cryotherapy, shave excision, or electrocautery, cause only mild discomfort. We use local anesthesia or numbing agents to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
