Skin Tags

Skin Tags
Skin tags are generally harmless growths that may affect confidence for cosmetic reasons. They are usually found where are folds in the skin or where clothing can rub on the skin.

Treatments for Skin Tags

Skin tags appear as lumps on the skin and develop with age, mostly under folds of the skin like the armpit or where the edges of clothing can irritate the skin, from a build-up of collagen and vessels.

Skin tags develop a root or stem beneath the skin and though they are typically harmless, they may cause discomfort when irritated by clothing or the rubbing of the skin.

These type of tags can be removed by your doctor with our PlexR device to restore a smooth texture to the skin and reduce any further irritation from clothing.

SYMPTOMS of Skin Tags

"I saw Dr Weber for a private consult following
a misdiagnosis of depression by my GP.
Dr Weber suggested it sounded like perimenopause
and moved me off antidepressants
and on to HRT. I'm back to my old self
and can't thank him enough!"
