Skin Tag Treatment
Skin tags are common, acquired, benign skin growths that look like a small piece of soft, hanging skin. Skin tags are harmless growths. Some individuals may be more prone to tags (greater than 50-100 tags) either through increased weight, partly combined with heredity or other unknown causes. Males and females are equally prone to developing skin tags. So, if you are suffering from skin tags, we have the facility and doctors to help you get the best skin tag treatment.
The Best Treatment for Skin Tag Removal

- The radio wave skin tag removal surgery takes only a few minutes and has a fast effect.

Frequently Asked Questions
A skin tag is bits of skin- or flesh-colored tissue that project from the surrounding skin from a small, narrow stalk. Some people call these growths “skin tabs” or barnacles. Skin tags typically occur in characteristic locations including the base of the neck, underarms, eyelids, groin folds, and under the breasts (especially where underwire bras rub directly beneath the breasts). Although skin tags may vary somewhat in appearance, they are usually smooth or slightly wrinkled and irregular, flesh-colored or slightly more brown, and hang from the skin by a small stalk. Early or beginning skin tags may be as small as a flattened pinhead-sized bump around the neck. While most tags typically are small (2-5 mm in diameter) at approximately one-third to one-half the size of a pinky fingernail, some skin tags may become as large as a big grape (1 cm in diameter) or a fig (5 cm in diameter). And that is why getting skin tag treatment becomes a necessity.
Obesity and being moderately overweight (even temporary increases) dramatically increase the chances of having skin tags. Normal weight individuals with larger breasts are also more prone to skin tags under their breasts.
There are no currently medically approved creams for the removal of skin tags. Skin tags are removed usually by physical methods like cutting off or tying off with dental floss. It is not advisable to use unapproved products like Dermasil, wart removers, essential oils, nail polish, toothpaste, or hair-removal creams like Neat or Nair. Trial uses of unapproved creams may cause irritation and possible secondary complications.
Except for the cosmetic appearance, they essentially cause no physical pain or discomfort. These tiny skin growths generally cause symptoms when they are repeatedly irritated as, for example, by the collar or in the groin. Cosmetic removal for unsightly appearance is perhaps the most common reason they are removed. Occasionally, a tag may require removal because it has become irritated and red from bleeding (hemorrhage) or black from twisting and dying of the skin tissue (necrosis). Sometimes, they may become snagged by clothing, jewelry, pets, or seatbelts, causing pain or discomfort. Overall these are very benign growths that have no cancer (malignant) potential.
Occasionally, a tag may spontaneously fall off without any pain or discomfort. This may occur after the tag has twisted on itself at the stalk base, interrupting the blood flow to the tag.
There is no evidence that removing a skin tag will cause more tags to grow. There is no expectation of causing skin tags to “seed” or spread by removing them. In reality, some people are simply more prone to developing skin tags and may have new growths periodically. Some individuals require periodic removal of tags at annual or even quarterly intervals

2001
In 2001 - Humble Beginnings
As the medical cannabis scene grew in Santa Ana and the surrounding region, it was hard to be ignored. Most cannabis users that found the plant to be therapeutic had to acquire it in the black market, undertaking multiple legal and safety risks. Cannabis users usually were stigmatized and they had to use cannabis secretly and illicitly.
2007
In 2007 - Cannabis Saves our Staff
Then 2007-2009 our own medical staff was suffering from anxiety, and appetite issues. We were looking for alternatives to prescription medication and traditional treatments. It was obvious that Cannabis as medicine works, works effectively, and is more affordable than prescription medication. Looking at these facts, we made a clear decision, we had to embrace medical cannabis even if it meant an uncertain future.

In 2018 - Recreational
In 2018, with the legalization of Cannabis in California, medical cards were not longer required to gain access to many dispensaries. However, medical cards took a different role – they allowed patients to pay less in taxes, grow, carry, and purchase more, and access more products.
2019
In 2019 - Making an Impact
In 2019, the climate has changed but our values have not. We stand firm in our belief that everyone should have access, and that medical patients deserve to pay less in taxes. We want to make sure recreational limits are not imposed on those that truly use cannabis.and also that these people now where to go. To accomplish this we created our dispensary listings and independently verify legit operations
