I am 39 years old, wishes to remove skin tags from underarms and under thighs. My question - Is it painful, can it be fine within a day, is it a lengthy procedure and how much it costs.

Its a simple procedure. We apply anesthetic cream, make it numb and then remove it. Lesions usually heals nicely in 7 - 10 days. Removal requires 15 mins but the skin to become numb, it takes about 1 hour.

Hello, Skin tags can be removed by RF cautery, Plasma pen surgery. It is a minor procedure and will take 30 min and all scars heal within a week. The costs depend on the number of skin tag but usually will be within 5 thousand.
