I too went to Dr. Casper and wanted to have a face skin tag taken off. He gladly did that and also took samples of other areas. One came back positive and I had to have Mohs surgery for it. It was not large but grafting from my ear had to be done. I was skeptical of the results.
Now, three years later, that little tag is gone BUT a large brown keratosis exists in its place. Much bigger than that little tag under my eye. The Mohs was fairly painful for me for that week too.
So I can't recommend them. They will always freeze something to get more from your insurance company. Dermatologists, next to surgeons, are the most lucrative physician career you can get into.
For me, I no longer go to Dermatologists and have my Primary check me for skin spots that are/are-not changing year to year. You want to look for change and odd shapes my doctor says.
Over the counter solution did not disolve my skin tag. Maybe I didn't use it long enough.
Just my experience. Good luck. Minnie Pearl would keep her tag!!!
