A quick fix for a common problem

Skin tags are small, soft growths that appear where skin rubs against skin or clothing. They are harmless but can be irritating or cosmetically bothersome, particularly on the neck, underarms, eyelids, and around bra lines or waistbands.

At Changes Clinic, we remove skin tags using hyfrecation or Sterex electrolysis for smaller tags: a fine probe separates the tag from the skin with minimal discomfort. Most patients describe it as barely noticeable. For larger tags that require surgical removal, we refer to our resident surgeon.

We also remove milia, the small white keratin cysts that commonly appear around the eyes and on the face.

How we work

For smaller skin tags and milia, we work on a time basis. We remove as many as possible within your booked slot: 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes. This keeps the pricing simple and clear, and means you can address multiple tags in one appointment.

For larger tags that may need stitches, a separate consultation with our surgeon is required and the procedure is priced accordingly. Removed tissue from larger tags can be sent to pathology if needed.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I went for an ultrasound scan due the NHS appointment waiting time was a longtime away, the service I recieved from Andrea was excellent, second to none, Andrea explained everything including the results of the scan straight afterwards.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

She made me feel completely at ease. Such a down-to-earth lady that you can feel genuinely comfortable with. Her prices are so reasonable and very affordable too. I highly recommend Andrea

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common questions

Does skin tag removal hurt?

Very little. For most patients, skin tag removal in Portsmouth at our clinic is quick and comfortable. For smaller tags, the treatment takes only seconds per tag and most patients feel only a mild sensation. For larger surgical removals, we apply local anaesthetic so you feel nothing during the procedure.

How many skin tags can be removed in one appointment?

For small tags, we remove as many as possible within the time slot you book. The number depends on their size and location. We can give you a realistic idea at consultation.

Do skin tags come back after removal?

Removed tags do not return. However, new ones can develop in the same areas over time, particularly where friction occurs regularly. You can return for a further session if needed.

Is there any aftercare needed?

We will provide aftercare guidance. For small tags treated by hyfrecation or electrolysis, healing is quick and aftercare minimal. For surgical removals, we provide specific wound care instructions.

Can I have skin tags removed on my face?

Yes. We treat tags and milia on the face regularly, including around the eyes and on the eyelids. The method depends on the size and location.

What is the difference between a skin tag and a mole?

Skin tags are soft, fleshy growths attached to the skin by a narrow stalk. Moles are flat or raised pigmented spots. Both can be removed at our clinic. For moles, visit our mole removal page.
