TREATMENT TO ELIMINATE ACROCHORDA/Skin tags

Statistics show that 40% of the world’s population is struggling with acrochorda. The latter are mainly found in skin folds, such as the neck, armpits, breasts, groins and sometimes even the face and eyelids. Many mistakenly believe that the treatment of acrochorda belongs to the medical field, whereas in Quebec estheticians are allowed to treat this skin condition.

The cause of the formation of the acrochorda still seems unknown to this day. Even if they are annoying and unsightly, they are totally harmless.

The individuals predisposed to the appearance of tags are:

• persons with genetic factors;
• adults over 40 years of age;
• pregnant women;
• obese and overweight people;
• people with diabetes.

Among people at risk, the rate of the reappearance of acrochorda, even after getting rid of them, remains high.

In our Photoderma medico-esthetic clinic, it is possible to treat acrochorda effectively thanks to thermocoagulation.
