Everything You Need to Know About Warts and Skin Tags Removal

Warts and skin tags are two of the most common yet often misunderstood skin growths. Though generally harmless, they can be cosmetically unappealing or cause discomfort depending on their size and location. Fortunately, with modern dermatological treatments, their removal is safe, quick, and virtually painless.
If you’re looking for trusted and effective skin tag or wart removal in Bathinda, Dr. Ruchi Mangla at Vasu Eye & Skin Hospital offers advanced care and years of experience to help you regain clear, healthy skin.

What Are Warts and Skin Tags?

Warts

Warts are small, rough growths on the skin caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). They are contagious and can spread through skin contact or shared objects like towels or razors.

Advanced Symptoms to Watch Out For

Common types of warts include:

  • Common warts (usually on fingers, hands)
  • Plantar warts (on the soles of feet)
  • Flat warts (small, smooth, often on face or legs)
  • Filiform warts (long, thread-like, around the eyes, nose, mouth)
  • Genital warts (sexually transmitted)

Skin Tags

Skin tags are soft, benign growths that often appear in skin folds like the neck, armpits, under the breasts, eyelids, or groin. They are not contagious and are usually linked to:

  • Friction
  • Aging
  • Obesity
  • Hormonal changes
  • Diabetes or insulin resistance

Should You Get Them Removed?

While both warts and skin tags are typically harmless, you may want to consider removal if:

  • They cause pain, irritation, or bleeding
  • They are increasing in number or size
  • They affect your self-confidence or aesthetics
  • You suspect infection or inflammation
  • They are in areas prone to friction or shaving

Wart and Skin Tag Removal Treatment Options

At Vasu Eye & Skin Hospital, Dr. Ruchi Mangla offers evidence-based, safe procedures tailored to your skin type and lesion characteristics.
 

1.Cryotherapy (Freezing)

 
  • Liquid nitrogen is applied to freeze and destroy wart or skin tag tissue.
  • Suitable for common or plantar warts.
  • Mild stinging sensation may occur.
  • Usually requires more than one session.

2. Electrocautery

  • High-frequency electric current is used to burn off the lesion.
  • Commonly used for skin tags and facial warts.
  • Quick recovery, minimal bleeding.

3. Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)

  • Uses radio waves to cut and coagulate skin growths.
  • Less thermal damage compared to electrocautery.
  • Preferred for sensitive skin and cosmetic areas.

4.Laser Removal

  • Precision laser destroys tissue without affecting surrounding skin.
  • Best for flat warts or hard-to-reach areas.
  • Minimal downtime and excellent cosmetic results.

5. Surgical Excision

  • Performed for larger or suspicious lesions.
  • Involves numbing the area and physically removing the growth.
  • Small stitches may be needed.

FAQs

Is LASIK safer than contact lenses?

Yes, over the long term, LASIK has fewer risks compared to the daily risks of lens use.

Can LASIK correct all power ranges?

LASIK, especially Touchless LASIK, can treat a wide range of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.

How long do LASIK results last?

Typically for life, provided your vision is stable at the time of surgery.

Do contact lenses harm your eyes long-term?

Prolonged use can lead to reduced oxygen to the eye, dryness, and infections.

Is LASIK expensive?

It’s a one-time cost and is more economical than contact lenses over the years.
