Radio frequency is a better treatment technique for skin tag removal than cryotherapy due to various reasons. Radiofrequency ablation is more precise, less invasive and provides superior aesthetic results. Radiofrequency removes the skin tag from the root, without harming the surrounding tissue. The heat generated by radiofrequency cauterizes nerve endings, reducing pain and promoting faster healing. Cryotherapy can cause stinging and blistering on the skin. Radiofrequency minimizes scarring and discoloration, making it perfect for those who don’t want to be left with a big scar. Since cryotherapy is harsh on the skin, it can leave severe scarring. All these advantages are what makes radiofrequency a better treatment option for skin tag removal.
