So we have been open for 13 months now. Removal of anal skin tags is our most popular procedure. Anal skin tags can be embarrassing when it comes to your love life and interfere with wiping on the loo. Removal of anal skin tags may be classed as cosmetic surgery by the NHS however, they can still have a significant impact on your confidence and day to day life. They unfortunately tend to grow with time if left alone, this is due to the friction during wiping – usually a daily occurrence!
