Understanding Skin Tags and Moles
Skin tags and moles are benign growths that commonly occur on the skin. While they are usually harmless, they can sometimes cause discomfort or self-consciousness. At Richard Martinez, MD, we understand the impact these growths can have on your daily life and self-esteem.
Skin Tags
Skin tags, medically known as acrochordons, are small, soft, and flesh-colored growths that typically appear in areas where the skin folds or rubs together. Common sites for skin tags include the neck, armpits, groin, and eyelids. While they are harmless, skin tags can become irritated or snagged on clothing or jewelry.
Moless
Moless, also referred to as nevi, are pigmented growths that can vary in size, shape, and color. While most moles are harmless, some may have atypical features that require further evaluation. It is important to monitor moles for any changes in size, shape, or color, as this could indicate a potential risk.
Treatment Options
At Richard Martinez, MD, we offer a range of safe and effective treatment options for the removal of skin tags or moles, tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient. Our dedicated team utilizes the latest advancements in dermatological technology and techniques to ensure optimal outcomes.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy involves freezing the skin tag or mole using liquid nitrogen, causing it to gradually slough off. This non-invasive procedure is quick, relatively painless, and requires minimal downtime. It is an excellent option for smaller growths.
Electrosurgery
Electrosurgery is a procedure that uses an electric current to cut and cauterize the skin tag or mole. This method ensures precise removal while minimizing bleeding. It is commonly used for larger or thicker growths.
Excision
Excision involves surgically removing the skin tag or mole along with a small border of healthy skin. This method is typically reserved for larger or more complex growths. Our skilled dermatologists perform excision with meticulous care to achieve optimal cosmetic results.
