Removal of Skin tags and milia following clinical assessment

Price

£225 up to 5 or £275 up to 10.

Most patients come in because they’ve noticed small changes in the skin that haven’t gone away. This may be a skin tag that catches or becomes irritated, or small white bumps such as milia, that affect the texture of the skin.

These are common and usually harmless, but they can become uncomfortable or noticeable over time. At Bodyvie, we start with a proper assessment to confirm what you’re dealing with before recommending treatment.

What is skin tag and milia removal?

Skin tag and milia removal involves treating small, harmless skin growths using techniques chosen based on the type of skin change and where it sits.

Skin tags are soft growths that sit on the surface of the skin, while milia are small cysts formed beneath the surface. Each requires a slightly different approach to ensure the area heals cleanly.

The focus is on removing it safely, rather than simply improving how it looks, while minimising irritation to the surrounding skin.

Who is suitable?

Patients usually come in with a specific concern about small growths – also known as lesions – on the skin.

This often includes:

skin tags that catch, rub or become irritated
small white bumps (milia) that don’t resolve on their own
changes in texture or appearance that feel persistent
cosmetic concerns in visible areas such as the face or neck

Some lesions may not require treatment. Suitability is always discussed during your consultation, and in some cases it may be more appropriate to leave the area or monitor it over time.

Benefits of treatment

When suitable, the aim is to remove the growth cleanly and reduce ongoing irritation or discomfort.

removes the skin tag or milia rather than leaving it to persist
areas that catch or feel irritated tend to settle once treated
the skin usually feels smoother once healed
in many cases, more than one area can be treated in the same visit
the procedure itself is generally straightforward once assessed properly

The treatment process

Consultation

Your consultation begins with an assessment of the area and the type of growth or lesion present.

We also review your medical history and talk through what you’ve noticed.

We explain which treatment approach is suitable and what to expect from healing. If treatment is not appropriate, we’ll advise you and discuss alternatives.

The procedure

We prepare the area and use local anaesthetic where needed to keep you comfortable. We then remove the skin tag or milia using a controlled technique suited to the specific area.

Skin tags are usually removed at the surface, while milia may be released carefully from beneath the skin. The approach is discussed with you during your consultation.

Aftercare

You can return home shortly after the procedure. We give you clear instructions on how to care for the area while it heals.

This usually involves keeping the area clean and allowing any small marks or scabs to settle naturally. We may arrange a follow-up if needed.

Recovery and downtime

There is usually minimal downtime after treatment.

You may notice mild redness, tenderness or small scabs in the treated area. These typically settle over several days as the skin heals.

Most people return to normal activities straight away, although the skin may continue to settle over the following days.

Results and healing

The result develops as the skin heals.

Once removed, the treated growth does not return, although new skin tags or milia can develop over time. The final appearance depends on the area treated and how your skin heals.

Small marks may be visible initially, but these usually settle and become less noticeable as healing progresses.

Cost of skin tag and milia removal in London

The cost of treatment is confirmed after consultation.

This depends on the number of lesions, their location and the technique required. You’ll be given a clear plan and quotation before any treatment goes ahead.

Risks and considerations

As with any minor skin procedure, there are potential risks. These include redness, irritation, infection, or delayed healing.

Small marks or light scarring can occur but usually settle well over time. We discuss all risks clearly during consultation so you can make an informed decision prior to proceeding with treatment.
