Skin Growth Removal in Northern Nevada
Remove Unwanted Bumps, Spots & Growths with Precision
At Pacific Crest Dermatology, we safely and effectively remove unwanted skin lesions—whether it’s sebaceous hyperplasia (enlarged oil glands), seborrheic keratoses (“barnacles”), cherry angiomas, or skin tags—tailoring each treatment to your skin type and goals.
We’ll evaluate your lesions’ type, size, and location to recommend the best removal method.
Most treatments take just a few minutes. You may feel a brief pinch, warmth, or cold sensation—depending on the technique.

Treatment Options
✔️ Snipping – Quick, precise removal for skin tags
✔️ Cauterization – Heat-based technique to shrink and eliminate growths
✔️ Cryotherapy – Liquid nitrogen freezes away unwanted spots
✔️ Laser Therapy – Targets redness and vascular lesions like cherry angiomas

What to Expect
Expect mild redness, scabbing, or swelling that typically resolves in days to weeks. Keep the area clean, moisturized (we recommend a thin layer of Vaseline), and protected from sun exposure for optimal healing.
While many lesions clear after one session, some may require additional visits to achieve the best results.
