Frequently Asked Questions

Is skin growth removal covered by insurance?

Most cosmetic removals (skin tags, milia, cherry angiomas) are not covered by insurance. If removal is medically necessary, insurance may apply, but this is uncommon.

Will the growths come back?

Once removed, the treated growth is gone. However, new skin tags or angiomas can develop over time.

Does it hurt?

Discomfort is minimal. We use topical or local anesthesia if needed, and procedures are quick.

Will there be a scar?

Most removals heal with little to no visible mark. Dr. Yamany uses techniques designed to minimize scarring.
