Skin tags do not pose a threat to your health. However, we provide comprehensive dermatologic and cosmetic services if you want them removed.
Have you noticed tiny, flesh-colored flaps of tissue protruding from your neck, arms, chest, groin, or another area of your body? Don’t worry. These are skin tags and are not dangerous. As many as 25% of people develop this skin condition.
My exam was thorough and professional. Zach completed 3 procedures with no discomfort at all, making sure sites were totally numb before he proceeded. I recommend Jax Dermatology and Cosmetic Sugery.
Response from the owner:We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
This was my first visit to Jax Dermatology and I was impressed by the professionalism at the front desk, the knowledge and expertise of the staff and the kindness extended to me during treatment. I arrived very early to my appointment to give me time to fill out paperwork and was more than willing to come back for the actual appointment, however, staff got me in early and there was no "wait" involved I want to thank the staff for such prompt and courteous service.
My second visit on July 2, 2025, was equally satisfying. I was taken into the exam room within 5 minutes of arriving. The services of Dr. Stepien were accomplished with ease and perfect professionalism. I appreciate a practice that values their patients and does their absolute best to provide the services with such knowledge and expert handling. I will continue with Jax Dermatology for all future needs.
I visited again in April 2026 and had a great experience. The PA who did my filler was extremely informative and did great work on my face. I appreciate the professionalism shown by the folks at Jacksonville Dermatology.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!

Response from the owner:Thank you, we are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!
While skin tags do not threaten your health, you may feel self-conscious about the appearance or texture of your skin. As a result, you may wonder what you can do to get rid of them.
If you want to remove your skin tags, do not attempt to remove them yourself. Home remedies and treatments can cause bleeding and serious infections. At Jacksonville Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery, we provide comprehensive dermatologic and cosmetic services. We maintain the highest quality care in a warm and compassionate environment.
What are Skin Tags?
Skin tags are tiny flaps of flesh-colored skin that protrude from the skin. They can be found almost anyplace on the body, but they tend to occur on the neck, underarms, groin, and eyelids. These little growths pose no health risk, but many people find them irritating and decide to remove them.
The exact cause of skin tags isn’t completely understood. However, they do occur more commonly in diabetic and obese individuals and people with a family history of skin tags. They affect men and women equally.
How are Skin Tags Treated?
Since skin tags are a benign skin condition, they are generally not removed unless an individual finds them irritating or displeasing. While some home remedies or treatments claim to remove them, surgery is the only way to safely and effectively remove skin tags. A dermatologist will use a blade, liquid nitrogen, or electric cautery. A local anesthetic can be used if necessary.
Skin tags that are removed don’t typically grow back. However, you can still develop new ones in other parts of your body.
