 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an appointment with Kylie for skin tag removal, and this was my second visit to the clinic but my first time being treated by her.

At first, I was quite nervous and didn’t feel very confident about the procedure. However, as soon as Kylie started explaining the process and what to expect, she immediately put me at ease. She is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and clearly knows exactly what she’s doing.

I chose to have the procedure without numbing cream, and to my surprise, I hardly felt any discomfort at all. As soon as the treatment was finished, I could already see excellent results.

I would definitely recommend Kylie to anyone considering skin tag removal , ACP Treatment ..

Thank you all !

See before and immediate after 🥰 great job

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a client of this clinic for a couple of years now and always find Kate extremely knowledgeable, personable and top tier customer service. I can see why she is in charge of running the clinic. I have had many microneedling and chemical peel treatments with Ellen and whilst I kept going back because she was so patient, skilled and knowledgeable, I also always enjoyed the little chats we'd have and the giggles. She always made the whole experience enjoyable. I am now a patient with the dermatology doctor and miss the ladies on the other side of the clinic! I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone interested in treatments

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had a consultation with Flor to discuss some loose skin on my eyelids, as well as skin tightening for my chin and jawline. She is clearly very experienced and knowledgeable, and took the time to explain my options while giving honest, realistic advice about what could actually be achieved.

What I appreciated most was that I never felt like I was being sold a treatment. Instead, Flor genuinely listened to my concerns and recommended what she felt would be the most suitable approach for me. It was so refreshing to speak with someone who prioritises giving honest guidance over making a sale.

I left the consultation feeling informed, reassured, and confident about my next steps.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was very skeptical of having laser as I did. It know what to expect. Leigh was very reassuring and approachable in making the whole experience comfortable. She even gave me a feel for the laser before my appointment in September by removing one cherry angioma. Now that’s great customer expectations!  I have an appointment booked for September!

— How it works

How genital lesion removal works

At your free consultation, your Specialist Aesthetic Practitioner assesses your area of concern and suitability for Sterex Advanced Electrolysis (ACP), and discusses the likely outcome, cost and what to expect.

Before treatment, a strong topical anaesthetic is applied to minimise discomfort.

During treatment, the tip of a fine probe discharges a small electrical current to gently destroy and seal the lesion, protecting the area from bacteria.

After treatment, you receive aftercare instructions and products, plus a free follow-up review to assess healing.

For some concerns only one treatment is necessary; more may be needed depending on the number and severity of lesions. In some complex cases you may be assessed by a Dermatologist before treatment.

— What we treat

What are genital lesions?

Anal skin tags

Anal and peri-anal skin tags present as small, flesh-coloured growths of extra skin around the anus. They are usually harmless and are only problematic if they become irritated by tight clothing, if they grow in size, or if they cause worry and embarrassment. Skin tags are best treated by a medical professional and you should not attempt to treat them at home due to risk of harm or infection.

Anal skin tags must not be confused for haemorrhoids. Haemorrhoids usually cause functional issues, discomfort and bleeding. You should consult a Dermatologist, GP or a pharmacist if this is the case as you can be treated with over the counter topical creams.

Vaginal & vulval skin tags

Like most skin tags, vaginal skin tags (and skin tags on the vulva) appear as soft, flesh-coloured flaps of extra skin attached to the vulva, vagina or surrounding genital area. They are harmless but can catch on clothing, become irritated, or simply cause self-consciousness.

Vaginal and vulval skin tags are easily and precisely removed by our experienced practitioners using Sterex Advanced Electrolysis, with minimal discomfort and minimal downtime. Treatment is carried out discreetly and sensitively in our CQC-regulated Holborn clinic, often on the same day as your consultation.

Skin tags on the penis, foreskin & scrotum

Anyone can develop skin tags on the penis shaft, foreskin, scrotum or around the penis. Like other skin tags they are generally harmless, but can become uncomfortable or irritated by tight clothing such as gym wear, and many patients simply dislike their appearance.

Sterex Advanced Electrolysis is a quick, precise treatment with minimal downtime, and our expert practitioners aim to achieve the best possible aesthetic outcome for skin tags on the penis and surrounding skin.

Genital warts

Genital warts are most commonly caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and are easily transmitted via sexual contact.

Genital warts look very similar to skin tags – flesh-like growths on the genitals, including the rectum, penis and vagina, which tend to spread.

Sterex Advanced Electrolysis is a precise lesion removal treatment, which is quick and causes minimal discomfort. Luckily genital warts can easily be removed in just one or two treatments depending on the severity.

Pearly penile papules

Pearly penile papules usually appear as several small bumps, which can have a white pearl-like sheen, and are typically found around the corona of the glans. It is thought that one in four men can develop papules in their lifetime.

Penile papules are not caused by an infection and are therefore not contagious and are usually harmless.

Patients tend to seek penile papule removal for cosmetic reasons.

Genital cherry angiomas

A cherry angioma is a red or purple spot, which can develop anywhere on the body, including the genitals.

Cherry angiomas are made up of blood vessels and are easily removed using Sterex Advanced Electrolysis.

Skin tags in the groin, pubic area & inner thigh

Skin tags frequently develop in the groin, pubic area and inner thighs, where skin naturally folds and rubs. Friction from clothing, sweating and hormonal changes all contribute.

These skin tags in the private area are harmless but easily caught or irritated and, like all genital skin tags, are best assessed and removed by a medical professional rather than treated at home, to avoid harm or infection.

— Difference

Skin tags vs genital warts: how to tell the difference

Genital skin tags and genital warts can look similar because of where they appear, but they are different conditions and are treated differently. The key difference is that genital warts are caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and are contagious, whereas skin tags are non-viral and not contagious.

Feature	Genital skin tags	Genital warts
Cause	Friction, sweating, hormones — non-viral	HPV (a sexually transmitted virus)
Contagious?	No	Yes
Appearance	Soft, flesh-coloured flaps of skin	Small flesh-coloured growths that can cluster & spread
Treatment	Sterex Advanced Electrolysis (ACP)	Sterex Advanced Electrolysis (ACP)

If you’re unsure whether you have a skin tag or a wart, our practitioners can confirm the difference quickly and discreetly at your consultation, and remove either safely, usually in one or two sessions.

— Other treatments

Other genital lesions London Real Skin treat

Using Sterex Advanced Electrolysis we also treat anal and peri-anal skin tags, pearly penile papules, genital cherry angiomas, genital skin flaps and (with Dermatologist approval) moles. Anal skin tags should not be confused with haemorrhoids, which cause functional issues, discomfort and bleeding.

— Cost

How much does genital skin tag removal cost in London?

Genital skin tag and wart removal at London Real Skin starts from £300. The exact price depends on the size and number of lesions and the area being treated, and is confirmed at your free consultation. Flexible monthly finance options are available.

Because the NHS considers most genital skin tags medically harmless, this treatment is rarely offered on the NHS. Private removal lets you be seen and treated quickly and in confidence.
