Skin tag removal at Facethetics Beauty in Delhi is done with plasma, not scissors or freezing. A plasma device made in Australia removes the tag at the surface using ionised gas, under numbing cream, and most patients have all their tags cleared in a single session. Removal starts from ₹2,000 per tag, depending on the size of the tag and where it is. Treatment is carried out by Dr. Swati Aggarwal or a doctor from her team at our Punjabi Bagh and East of Kailash clinics.

What changes the price
Size and location
Larger tags, and tags in delicate areas such as near the eyes, take more time and cost more.
What skin tags are
Skin tags are small, soft growths of skin that hang from a thin stalk. They are usually skin-coloured or a little darker, and range from a pinhead to the size of a grape. They are harmless and not contagious, but they rarely go away on their own.
They tend to appear where skin rubs against skin or clothing: the neck, underarms, eyelids, under the breasts, the groin and along a collar or bra line. They are more common with weight gain, diabetes or insulin resistance, pregnancy and a family history of them.
Why people get them removed
Small as they are, skin tags cause real day-to-day annoyance. They catch on necklaces, collars and bra straps, get twisted or nicked while shaving, and can become red, sore or bleed. Many also grow larger over time and new ones keep appearing, which is why people often come in with several at once. And on the face or neck, they are simply visible in every photo.
How plasma skin tag removal works
The plasma device converts the gases in the air into a tiny arc of ionised gas, or plasma, that jumps from the pen tip to the skin. The handpiece never touches you. Each pulse evaporates a pinpoint of the tag's tissue, so the doctor works through the tag from the top down until it is level with the surrounding skin.
Because the energy is so concentrated, there is no cutting and usually no bleeding. What remains is a small, dry brown crust where the tag was. That crust protects the skin underneath while it heals.

What happens during skin tag removal
- Check of every tag. The doctor first confirms each growth really is a skin tag. Moles, warts and other lesions can look similar. Anything that looks unusual is not removed until it has been checked properly.
- Numbing cream. A topical anaesthetic goes on the area and is left to work, so the treatment itself feels like light warm pricks.
- Plasma removal. Each tag is treated in turn. Small tags take seconds each. Most people have all their tags removed in the same sitting.
- Aftercare advice. You go home straight away with simple instructions for looking after the treated spots.
Healing and results
The treated spots form small brown crusts over the first day or two. Leave them alone and they fall off by themselves, usually within about a week, leaving fresh pink skin that settles to your normal tone over the following weeks. When the aftercare is followed, the skin usually heals without a visible mark.
The tags that are removed do not grow back. New tags can still form in the future, particularly if the things that cause them, like friction or weight changes, are still there. Those can be treated the same way.
Aftercare
- Keep the treated spots clean and dry for the first 24 hours.
- Do not pick, scratch or rub off the crusts. Picking is the main reason a mark is left behind.
- Skip makeup, perfume and strong skincare on the spots until the crusts have fallen off.
- Use sunscreen on treated areas that are exposed to the sun. New skin darkens easily, especially on medium and darker skin tones.
- Avoid swimming and steam rooms until healing is complete.
Skin tag removal cost in Delhi
Skin tag removal at Facethetics Beauty starts from ₹2,000 per tag. The final price depends on two things: the size of each tag, and where it is. A small tag on the neck sits at the starting price, while a larger tag, or one in a delicate area such as near the eyelids, costs more because it takes more time and care. The doctor checks your tags and confirms the total before anything is treated.
Even if you have several tags, they can usually all be removed in the same session, so you only need one visit.
Plasma compared with other methods
| Method | How it works | Things to know |
|---|---|---|
| Plasma (what we use) | Ionised gas evaporates the tag at the surface | No cutting, usually no bleeding, small crust that falls off in about a week |
| Snipping (excision) | The tag is cut off at the base | Quick, but can bleed, and larger tags may need a stitch |
| Freezing (cryotherapy) | Liquid nitrogen freezes the tag until it drops off | May need repeat sessions, and can leave a pale spot on darker skin |
| Laser | A CO2 laser vaporises the tag | Precise, works in a similar way to plasma. Pricing is often higher |
If you were searching for laser skin tag removal in Delhi, plasma does the same job of removing the tag at the surface without a scalpel. The doctor can explain at your visit which option suits your tags.
Salon or home removal: why it is a bad idea
Some beauty salons offer skin tag removal, and there are threads, patches and removal creams sold online. The problem is not only infection or bleeding. A salon cannot tell a skin tag apart from a mole, wart or something that needs medical attention, and removing the wrong growth can delay a diagnosis. Tying off or burning tags at home can also leave scars that are harder to fix than the tag itself.
What matters is that a doctor examines the growth before anything is removed. At Facethetics Beauty every tag is checked by a doctor first.
Who should wait or ask first
- Pregnancy, or a tag that is bleeding, changing colour or growing quickly. Get it checked before removal.
- An active skin infection or open wound in the area.
- A history of keloids or thick, raised scars.
- Uncontrolled diabetes, which can slow healing.
- A pacemaker or other implanted device. Tell the doctor so they can decide whether plasma is suitable for you.
Tags on or very close to the eyelids need extra care. The doctor will check them and tell you whether they can be treated safely in the clinic.
What our patients say
Frequently asked questions
What is the skin tag removal cost in Delhi at Facethetics Beauty?
It starts from ₹2,000 per tag. Larger tags and tags in delicate areas, such as near the eyes, cost more. The doctor confirms the total after checking your tags, before treatment starts.
Are all skin tags removed in one session?
In most cases, yes. Plasma removes each tag in seconds, so several tags can be treated in the same sitting. Very large tags may occasionally need a short follow-up.
Does plasma skin tag removal hurt?
Numbing cream is applied first, so most people feel only light, warm pricks. The treated spots may feel a little sore for a day.
Will it leave a mark or scar?
The small crusts fall off in about a week, and the pink skin underneath settles over the following weeks. When the crusts are left alone and the area is protected from the sun, the skin usually heals without a visible mark.
Is plasma the same as laser skin tag removal?
Both remove the tag at the surface without cutting. Plasma uses ionised gas instead of a laser beam. For most skin tags the result is similar.
Do I need a dermatologist to remove skin tags?
You need a doctor to examine the growth before it is removed, so that anything that is not a simple skin tag is caught. At Facethetics Beauty a doctor checks every tag before treatment.
Can skin tags come back after removal?
A tag that has been removed does not grow back. New tags can form elsewhere over time, especially in areas with friction, and they can be treated the same way.
Which clinics offer skin tag removal, and what are the timings?
Both clinics offer it. Google lists Punjabi Bagh as open 9 am to 9 pm and East of Kailash as open 9 am to 8 pm. Please check the Google listing or call before visiting on Sundays or public holidays.
