What Are Anal Skin Tags?

Anal skin tags, also known as perianal skin tags, are small, benign growths of skin around the anal area. While they are not dangerous, they can cause discomfort, irritation, or hygiene concerns. Common causes include past haemorrhoids, chronic constipation, postpartum changes, or skin friction.

At Geniale, we provide non-surgical treatment options for suitable patients. All procedures are performed by doctors after a full medical consultation and assessment. Treatment generally takes 60 minutes and is conducted under local anaesthesia, using gentle methods such as radiofrequency or laser, depending on clinical suitability.

Patients typically return to normal activity shortly after the procedure. As with all procedures, individual recovery and outcomes can vary. Comprehensive post-treatment care instructions are provided.

Frequently Asked Questions about Anal Tag Removal

How is an anal tag removed?

Anal skin tags may be removed using a medical-grade radiofrequency or laser device. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia in a clinical setting. The area is carefully assessed by a qualified doctor to ensure it is safe to proceed. This is generally a quick, low-discomfort treatment, followed by detailed post-care instructions. As with all medical procedures, individual results and healing times can vary.

Can you remove an anal tag yourself?

No. Attempting to remove an anal tag at home can lead to complications such as infection, scarring, or misdiagnosis. What appears to be a skin tag may actually be a haemorrhoid, thrombosis, or a more serious skin condition. A qualified health practitioner should assess any lesion before removal is considered.

How should I prepare for an anal skin tag removal procedure?

This is typically a walk-in, walk-out procedure. Prior to treatment, a doctor will examine the area to ensure suitability. On the day, local anaesthetic is applied and the lesion is removed. Patients should follow specific hygiene instructions before and after treatment. Detailed pre- and post-care advice will be provided during your consultation.

What is the recovery like?

Most people can resume regular activity within 1–2 days, although you may be advised to avoid heavy lifting, exercise, and sexual activity for up to a week. Pain relief and/or numbing cream may be prescribed to ease discomfort. Some people experience sensitivity for a few days. While recurrence is uncommon, those prone to haemorrhoids or skin tags may develop new lesions over time.

How much does it cost?

Prices vary depending on the number and size of lesions. As a guide, removal of one anal tag starts from approximately $1,350, with multiple tag removal procedures ranging upwards from $1,950. A full quotation is provided following your medical consultation.

Important Note

All procedures are subject to a thorough medical consultation and assessment. Individual outcomes and suitability vary. No procedure is risk-free, and we do not guarantee specific results. All care is provided by AHPRA-registered practitioners in accordance with Australian medical standards.
