  3. CryoPen freezing, usually in a single session

Skin tags are small, soft growths that hang from the skin. They are harmless and very common, but they can catch on clothing or jewellery, rub, or simply be somewhere you would rather they weren’t. If you live in Neath and want one removed, we freeze skin tags with the CryoPen at our clinic in Llanelli.

Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic is in the centre of Llanelli. We are a doctor-led clinic registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and we have been treating clients since 2016.

Every client starts with a free consultation. There’s no pressure and no sales pitch, just an honest view of what treatment can and can’t do for you.

What Are Skin Tags?

Skin tags are soft, harmless pieces of skin that hang from a short stalk. Because they develop where skin rubs, you’ll usually find them on the neck, in the armpits, on the eyelids, in the groin or under the breasts. People in Neath often come to us when a tag has started to catch, bleed or become irritated.

They’re harmless, but if they snag, bleed or bother you, they can be removed quickly and simply.

Our doctor-led clinic in Llanelli is registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and skin tag removal with the CryoPen starts from £50.

How CryoPen Skin Tag Removal Works

Illustration: the CryoPen delivers a fine, precise jet of ultra-cold nitrous oxide onto the skin tag. The extreme cold turns the fluid inside its cells into sharp ice crystals, which rupture the cell walls and destroy the tissue, while the surrounding skin is left unharmed. Over the following one to six weeks the tag turns black at the base, dries and falls away naturally, leaving smooth skin behind. Larger skin tags may need a second freeze. © Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic.

Using the CryoPen, we direct a pinpoint jet of nitrous oxide onto the skin tag. It freezes within a few seconds, and only the tag is treated.

There are no needles, no cutting and no stitches. The tag gradually darkens where it joins the skin and comes away on its own over 1 to 6 weeks.

What Results to Expect

Most clients need just one session. Tags measuring 3mm or more can take a second freeze; if one is still present after 6 weeks, contact us for re-treatment.

The CryoPen’s accuracy keeps the risk of scarring low, though the skin may occasionally heal lighter or darker, especially lighter on darker skin. We’ll talk through suitability at your consultation. New skin tags can form elsewhere.

Warts and Pigmentation

The CryoPen is not only for skin tags. We also use it to treat warts and small areas of pigmentation, such as age spots.

We will look at the lesion at your free consultation and tell you whether freezing is suitable.

What You Can Expect from Treatment

  • Very quick: the CryoPen is applied for just seconds per tag
  • Short sting: a quick cold sensation that fades fast
  • Often a single visit: larger tags of 3mm or more can need two freezes
  • Drops away naturally: within 1 to 6 weeks
  • No downtime: carry on as normal straight away
  • Straight answers: we check suitability before any treatment

Your Free Consultation

At your free consultation, we look at each tag to make sure it’s suitable for freezing and ask about your health and medication.

You’ll know exactly what it will cost before we start. Anything we’re unsure about, we’ll refer back to your GP to check first.

To secure your appointment we take a £30 deposit. It comes off the price of your treatment, or we refund it in full if you decide not to go ahead. Please read our cancellation policy before you book.

Before and After Your Treatment

Before you come in

  • No special preparation is needed.
  • Come with the area clean and free from make-up, creams and fake tan.
  • Tell us about any medication you take and any medical conditions, particularly anything affecting circulation or healing.

After each session

  • Leave the skin tag alone and let it fall off by itself. Do not pick, scratch or pull at it.
  • Keep the area clean and pat it dry gently after washing.
  • If a small blister forms, do not burst it. It will settle on its own.
  • Use SPF 50 on the area if it is exposed to the sun while it heals.
  • Call us if you have any concerns about how the area is healing.

You’ll be given aftercare advice to take home, and you can call us with any questions.

Skin Tag Removal near Neath: Your Questions Answered

How much does skin tag removal cost?

Prices start from £50 and depend on the number of skin tags. We confirm your price at the free consultation, before any treatment.

Does CryoPen skin tag removal hurt?

Just a brief stinging cold for a few seconds. Most people tolerate it easily, so anaesthetic isn’t required.

How many sessions will I need?

Typically one. If a larger tag is still there after 6 weeks, we’ll freeze it again.

How long does it take for the skin tag to fall off?

It darkens, then falls away within 1 to 6 weeks.

Will it leave a scar?

It’s rare. The precise jet limits the effect to the tag itself, though a paler or darker patch can occasionally remain. We’ll explain this beforehand.

Is there any downtime?

None. You can go straight back to work or home as normal.

How do I book from Neath?

Call 01554 227543 or message us on WhatsApp at 07437 164988. Consultations are free, and we’re open Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm, at 10 Cowell Street, Llanelli.
