Acrochordons, commonly known as skin tags or facial acrochordons, are small benign skin growths that often appear on the face, eyelids, neck, armpits, and other friction-prone areas. They are usually flesh-colored or slightly darker than the natural skin tone and are attached to the skin by a small stalk (peduncle). Although painless and generally harmless, acrochordons can be a source of aesthetic concern for many people. For individuals researching skin tag removal, understanding what causes and influences these small lesions is an important first step before seeking treatment.

Skin tags can appear on anyone, but are more common among adults and older individuals. They are also frequently observed in people who are overweight or diabetic. Hereditary factors may also play a role in their development, and they can be aggravated by repeated skin friction. If you’ve noticed a small growth on your face and are feeling concerned about it, it’s important to know that these small skin tags are usually harmless. However, they may be bothersome or cosmetically undesirable, especially when visible on the face. For those considering removing skin tags professionally, dermatological evaluation ensures safe and effective outcomes, avoiding potential irritation or infection associated with at-home removal.

If a facial acrochordon is unsightly, bothersome, or painful, removal may be appropriate. In most cases, a facial acrochordon is benign and poses no health risk, but it can be removed for cosmetic reasons—particularly if its size or location is undesirable. To determine whether removal is necessary, consult a professional who will examine the lesion to ensure it is not another type of growth, such as a mole or melanoma. The professional will advise whether the acrochordon can be safely removed and recommend the most suitable skin tag removal method.
At Clinique Main D’Or, acrochordons are first assessed during a consultation to evaluate their size, location, and characteristics. The choice of treatment depends on these factors as well as the desired aesthetic outcome. Available treatment options include Cryotherapy for skin tags and electrocoagulation. In some instances, referral to a professional for surgical excision may be recommended. This personalized approach ensures a safe and tailored treatment with optimal cosmetic results.
The best method to remove skin tags from the face depends on their size, location, and the patient’s preferences. At Clinique Main D’Or, we favor reliable, minimally invasive techniques such as Cryotherapy for skin tags and electrocoagulation, which remove acrochordons without leaving visible scars—an important factor for facial aesthetics. For larger skin tags, surgical excision may be considered, requiring a more delicate approach to minimize scarring. Our team will guide you toward the most appropriate and safe procedure for your skin.
