Treatment Area
CO₂ Laser
CO₂ laser technology offers a minimally invasive option intended to target specific localized lesions while helping to minimize impact on surrounding skin.
During consultation, a physician evaluates the lesion to discuss whether laser treatment, surgical excision, or another approach is appropriate for your individual condition.
Point 2: The laser’s thermal energy assists in coagulating small blood vessels, which helps keep bleeding during the procedure to a minimum.
Point 3: Procedure time is relatively short (often 5–10 minutes per treatment area), and initial recovery of small sites typically occurs over 1–2 weeks, depending on individual healing rates.
-Those with skin tags near delicate areas, such as the eyelids or eye contour, who want a professional evaluation.
-Those with multiple small skin tags interested in texture-focused medical care.
-Those wishing to avoid the risks associated with unverified home removal methods.
-Those looking for clinic-based laser consultation in Tokyo with English support.
Laser Treatments
Every patient’s skin possesses unique characteristics, including varying melanin levels, sensitivity, and structural integrity.
Rather than applying a single uniform technique, our medical team conducts a thorough pre-treatment evaluation to select and combine appropriate laser modalities based on your specific skin condition and aesthetic goals.
While the CO₂ laser is primarily used for skin tag removal, additional laser options (such as Pico lasers) may be discussed if you also have concerns regarding surrounding pigmentation, sun spots, or uneven skin tone.
Point 2: Treatment parameters are adjusted under medical supervision according to skin tone, helping to consider the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Point 3: Treatment approaches are designed to fit your schedule and support natural-looking skin quality aligned with BIANCA CLINIC’s aesthetic standards.
-Those with darker skin tones seeking an individualized laser evaluation to manage pigmentation risks.
-Those with skin tags across multiple areas who desire a structured care plan.
-Those seeking guidance on overall skin health in addition to lesion removal.

FAQ
What are skin tags, and should I be concerned?
They are generally non-cancerous. Skin tags (acrochordons) are common, benign growths that frequently appear in high-friction areas such as the neck, underarms, or groin.
However, any lesion that changes rapidly, bleeds, or appears unusual should be evaluated by a doctor.
What causes skin tags to form?
Skin tags often develop due to friction, genetic factors, hormonal shifts (such as during pregnancy or menopause), and metabolic conditions related to insulin resistance.
They frequently become more noticeable in your 30s, 40s, or 50s.
Can skin tags disappear on their own?
No, skin tags generally do not disappear without intervention.
Attempting to twist, cut, or forcefully remove them at home can lead to bleeding, scarring, or infection, so consulting a medical professional is recommended.
What options are available for removing skin tags?
Medical removal using a CO₂ laser is one of the options available at BIANCA CLINIC.
This treatment targets the lesion precisely, which aims to minimize unnecessary stress on surrounding healthy skin and support natural healing.
Is laser skin tag removal uncomfortable?
Sensations vary, but many patients report only mild discomfort during the procedure.
Topical anesthesia can be used to manage sensation, and any post-treatment tenderness is usually temporary.
How much does skin tag removal cost at BIANCA CLINIC?
Pricing depends on size, location, and total count, starting from ¥6,400 per 1mm lesion for CO₂ laser removal.
Treatment plans are tailored after a medical consultation, where a detailed estimate will be provided.
Can skin tags be removed from delicate areas like the eyelids or groin?
It depends on the specific area and skin condition.
A doctor will carefully examine the site to determine whether laser treatment can be safely performed.
Will skin tags return after treatment?
Recurrence at the exact removal spot is generally less common, though complete prevention cannot be guaranteed.
New skin tags may still form in other areas over time due to ongoing friction or genetic factors.
Are over-the-counter removal creams or home kits recommended?
No, home remedies are not recommended as they carry risks of skin irritation, burns, unexpected scarring, or incomplete removal.
Medical evaluation prior to treatment is advised.
Do you offer skin tag consultations for international patients in Tokyo?
Yes, BIANCA CLINIC provides full English-speaking consultations and medical care in Tokyo, assisting international patients with clear explanations, transparent fee structures, and post-treatment guidance.
