Typical costs:
  • Skin tag removal usually costs $150 or less for the removal of one or several skin tags.
  • Skin tag removal is considered a cosmetic procedure, so insurance companies usually only cover the cost of the initial evaluation, but not removal.
What should be included:
  • The physician will either cut the skin tag off with a scalpel or sterile scissors, freeze it off with liquid nitrogen or cauterize it with an electric current.
Additional costs:
  • Skin tags sometimes grow back and need to be removed again at the same cost.
Discounts:
  • Skin tags are benign and can be left untreated if they are not painful or in a spot where they are irritated by clothing.
