Skin tags are benign, non-cancerous skin growths that commonly develop in areas subject to friction, such as the neck, underarms, and groin. While medically harmless, they may cause discomfort or aesthetic concern for many individuals. At Lilium Skin Clinic, we offer precise and effective removal using our advanced Plasma Pen technology—an innovative, non-invasive treatment that targets skin tags with minimal downtime.
Skin tags (medically known as acrochordons) are small, soft, benign growths that hang from the surface of the skin. While they’re completely harmless, many of our Berwick clients find them unsightly, irritating, or simply inconvenient — especially when they catch on jewellery, clothing, or during shaving. The good news is that skin tags are one of the easiest skin concerns to treat, and at Lilium Skin Clinic, we offer a safe, precise, and virtually painless solution.
Skin tags can develop anywhere on the body but are most commonly found in areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing. The most frequent locations include:
If you’ve noticed a new growth and aren’t sure whether it’s a skin tag, mole, or something else, we recommend booking a professional skin consultation with our dermal clinicians before attempting any removal.
At Lilium Skin Clinic in Berwick, we use advanced Plasma Pen technology to safely and effectively remove skin tags with minimal discomfort and no cutting, stitching, or scarring. This non-invasive treatment uses targeted plasma energy to gently sublimate the skin tag, triggering the body’s natural healing response and stimulating collagen in the surrounding tissue.
Plasma Pen is suitable for all skin types and tones, and can be used on virtually any area of the body, including delicate areas like the eyelids where traditional methods aren’t appropriate.
Learn more about the treatment process on our dedicated Plasma Pen Skin Tag Removal page.
Most skin tags can be removed in a single 15–30 minute appointment. A numbing cream is applied beforehand to ensure your comfort. After treatment, a small scab forms over the area and falls away naturally within 5–10 days, revealing smooth, clear skin underneath.
Downtime is minimal, and most clients return to their normal routine the same day. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions — including sun protection advice, which is particularly important in Melbourne’s UV conditions.
Areas of the skin that experience friction or rubbing, such as where clothing or jewelry frequently touches the skin, are more prone to developing skin tags
Family history can play a role in the development of skin tags. If your parents or other relatives have skin tags, you may be more likely to develop them as well
Skin tags become more common as you age. The exact reason for this is not fully understood, but factors like hormonal changes and the natural aging process may contribute
Excess body weight can result in skin folds and creases, creating environments where skin tags are more likely to form
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can lead to an increased likelihood of developing skin tags, especially in areas of the body that experience friction
