At Versailles Medical Spa, our skin tag removal treatments address both cosmetic and practical issues. We help you achieve smoother, clearer skin, free from irritation, and restore your confidence.

What Are Skin Tags?

Skin tags, medically referred to as acrochordons, are benign growths that appear as soft, flesh-colored protrusions often attached to the skin by a slender stalk. Typically found in regions where skin creases or experiences friction, such as the neck, armpits, groin, and eyelids.

While the precise cause of skin tags remains uncertain, they are thought to form due to friction or rubbing between skin layers. Factors like obesity, hormonal fluctuations, and genetic predisposition may contribute to their development.
