Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about skin tag and cosmetic lesion removal at Body Blu.

We treat common benign skin concerns such as skin tags, cherry angiomas, seborrheic keratoses, and other unwanted cosmetic lesions. Every lesion is evaluated first to confirm it's an appropriate candidate for removal.

Most patients experience only minimal discomfort, and our approach prioritizes patient comfort throughout the entire visit. Your provider will explain exactly what to expect before beginning any treatment.

This is a quick, convenient in-office service designed to minimize disruption to your daily activities. Most visits are brief, especially when only a few lesions are being addressed.

Downtime is minimal for most patients, which is part of why this service is designed with minimal disruption to daily activities in mind. Your provider will let you know if any specific aftercare is needed for your particular treatment.

Our approach emphasizes natural-looking results, and scarring is generally minimal when lesions are properly evaluated and treated. Your provider will discuss what to expect based on the specific lesion being addressed.

In many cases, yes. Your provider will evaluate all of your areas of concern during your consultation and let you know what can be comfortably addressed in a single visit.

We are a cash-pay office, which includes FSA and HSA cards as accepted forms of payment. Since this is typically a cosmetic procedure, we don't bill insurance directly, but we're happy to provide a superbill on request.

A thorough evaluation is completed before any treatment to confirm it's a safe and appropriate option for your skin. Your provider will walk you through any considerations specific to your skin type during your consultation.
