Skin Tag Removal at Plum Health DPC
Skin tag on the bra line - ouch! And irritating ๐
Many women have skin tags along the bra line and many men have skin tags on the belt line that get irritated ๐ค when taking off and putting on clothing
Sometimes they can bleed ๐ฉธ and sometimes they can be painful. Overall, itโs just a nuisance.
At our Plum Health clinic, removing skin tags like this takes less than 20 minutes. โฐ
We use a a small amount of lidocaine with epinephrine to numb the area and limit bleeding ๐ and then we use a dermablade to remove the lesion
That skin tag is then sent to pathology to rule out cancer - this tissue was found to be benign, a seborrheic keratosis ๐ฌ
Pathology costs are $75 per sample and sometimes covered by insurance. ๐ต
If youโre living with an annoying skin tag, schedule an appointment with us this week to get it removed ๐ฏ
