About Safe Removal of Skin Tags & DPNs
You don't need to live with those tiny skin tags or DPNs. These are quick in-clinic procedures that I perform personally under local anesthesia. Most sessions are completed in about 10–20 minutes, and because I use precise radiofrequency or CO2 laser techniques, you can return to your normal daily activities immediately after the appointment.
Skin tags (acrochordons) and Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) are very common, but they are often misunderstood. Many people mistakenly try home remedies, which can lead to infection or permanent scarring.
Why Professional Removal Matters
When you come to my clinic in Indiranagar, the priority is safety and cosmetic outcome.
- Assessment: Before any procedure, I conduct a dermoscopic check to ensure the growth is truly benign.
- Precision: Whether I use CO2 Laser or Radiofrequency (RF) cautery, these methods seal blood vessels as they remove the growth. This means zero to minimal bleeding and significantly faster healing compared to outdated methods like surgical cutting or cryotherapy for these specific lesions.
- No Scarring Policy: Because I control the depth and precision of the laser, we avoid damaging the surrounding healthy skin. This is critical for DPN removal on the face, where we want to ensure no residual pigmentation remains after the scabs fall off.
The Recovery Process
For skin tags and DPNs, the recovery is straightforward. You will see small scabs form immediately after the procedure. These naturally fall off within 5 to 7 days. I provide clear post-care instructions, including the use of antibiotic gels and sun protection, to ensure the skin underneath heals smoothly.
What to Expect
- Anesthesia: I apply numbing cream 30–45 minutes before the procedure so you feel little to no discomfort.
- Efficiency: I can remove 15–20 lesions in a single session.
- Permanent Results: Once removed, these growths do not typically return in the same spot.
