Why Choose Our Skin Tag Removal

CryoPen precision

We use the CryoPen, which directs a narrow jet of nitrous oxide at the tag alone.

No cutting or stitches

The treatment is non-invasive, with no cutting and no stitches.

Doctor-led care

Before treating, we make sure it’s a skin tag and safe to freeze.

How it works

  1. Free consultation and skin assessment
  2. A clear price before treatment
  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 St Clears 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?

These small, fleshy tags of skin are joined to the body by a narrow stalk and are usually the same colour as your skin or slightly darker. Necklines, armpits, eyelids, the groin and the area under the breasts are where they show up most. Many clients from St Clears have several tags treated together, so one trip covers them all.

There’s no medical need to remove them, yet they can be irritating and many people simply prefer how their skin looks without them.

We are a doctor-led clinic in Llanelli, registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and we freeze skin tags with the CryoPen, 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.

Treatment uses the CryoPen, a handheld cryotherapy device. A narrow, pressurised stream of nitrous oxide freezes the skin tag in seconds, destroying its cells without harming the skin around it.

Nothing is cut and no stitches or anaesthetic are needed. In the weeks after, the tag blackens at the base and falls off naturally within 1 to 6 weeks.

What Results to Expect

Usually one freeze is enough. Larger tags, 3mm or over, may need a second, and we’ll re-treat any tag that hasn’t gone after 6 weeks.

The risk of scarring is low. Freezing can sometimes leave a paler or darker patch of skin, more commonly paler on darker skin tones, so we assess this at your consultation. Other tags may still develop over time.

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

  • Seconds per tag: each skin tag is frozen in a few seconds
  • Little discomfort: a brief cold sting that soon passes
  • Usually one session: tags of 3mm or more may need a second freeze
  • Falls off in 1 to 6 weeks: the tag darkens at the base before dropping off
  • No time off: go straight back to work or your day
  • Honest advice: we’ll tell you if a lesion isn’t suitable for freezing

Your Free Consultation

We start with a free consultation to confirm the lesion is a skin tag and that the CryoPen is suitable, and we go through your medical history.

The cost is agreed before treatment. If there’s any doubt about what a lesion is, we’ll advise you to see your GP 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 St Clears: 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?

It’s a quick cold sting that lasts only seconds. No anaesthetic is needed, and most clients are surprised how little it bothers them.

How many sessions will I need?

One session is usually enough, though bigger tags may need two.

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

Usually within 1 to 6 weeks, after darkening at the base.

Will it leave a scar?

Scarring is unlikely, as only the tag is frozen. Sometimes the skin heals a little lighter or darker, and we’ll talk this through first.

Is there any downtime?

No downtime. You can carry on with your normal routine right away.
