Skin lumps and bumps are skin abnormalities that occur on the surface of their skin or inside the skin layers. These may be classified as skin tags, skin warts or skin moles and can be easily removed by one of our dermatologists.
Skin lumps are primarily benign blemishes that are removed for aesthetic reasons. That said, occasionally these lumps and bumps can prove to be a sign of something more dangerous on deeper investigation, and worthy of deeper professional attention.
As such, we always recommend that you do not wait for a skin lump or bump simply to go away, and instead seek professional medical attention. Although skin cancers and melanomas are just one group of skin lump and bumps, they can be extremely dangerous if allowed to develop unchecked. Where the health of your skin is concerned, it's always better to be safe than sorry.
Whatever the status of your skin lumps and bumps, our expert dermatologists at the Cadogan Clinic can assess your condition and recommend the best type of treatment to suit your requirements at our state-of-the-art, purpose-built, central London facility in Chelsea.
We have invited a selection of the country's very best consultants to join us at the Cadogan Clinic so that you can be sure that whatever the nature of your treatment, you will be seeing one of the top practitioners in the country.

Testimonials
I was delighted with the service, right from making a telephone booking to attending the Clinic for my dermatology appointment with the knowledgeable Dr Tsiotsios. Staff are also very friendly and knowledgeable.
I am very pleased with the extremely efficient help and advice I received from Cadogan Clinic recently when I was worried about a skin problem. I was impressed with how quickly and efficiently my friendly patient advisor was able to reassure me and expedite a consultation with Dr Semkova. I highly recommend the clinic and the very professional team who work there.
I was seen by Dr Catherine Borysiewicz about some long standing skin conditions. I am delighted with her diagnosis and the treatment plan has made a huge impact on my skin health in the time since. I would definitely recommend
I had a wonderful experience at the Cadogan Clinic. I immediately felt taken care of by my friendly patient advisor and I was supported the whole way through my course of treatments. My skin is no longer struggling with acne and scarring thanks to Dr Griffiths. Each time I left the clinic after an appointment my confidence had been boosted and I am doing much much better with myself now.
The Cadogan Clinic and my consultants Dr Granite and Dr Sadideen are truly experts in their field, and have looked after all my skincare concerns and needs. I highly recommend then and would never go see anyone else! I cannot recommend them enough.
I was deeply impressed with the service and professionalism of Cadogan Clinic. I saw a lovely dermatologist - Dr Seghers - who really put me at ease and who I will most definitely visit again. Staff were so friendly, reception left no question unanswered. I will definitely be recommending to family and friends
You will meet with one of our highly trained dermatologists at the Cadogan Clinic on Sloane Street, Chelsea for an in-person assessment of your skin.

3 Easy Steps
What are skin tags?
Skin tags are small growths that hang off your skin. They're common and harmless, but can be removed if they're bothering you, purely for cosmetic reasons.
What is a wart?
A wart is a small growth with a rough texture that can appear anywhere on the body. It can look like a solid blister or a small cauliflower on the surface of the skin. They are best treated with cryotherapy, or freezing therapy
What is a cyst?
A cyst is a pouch-like capsule of membranous tissue that contains fluid, air, or other substances. Cysts can grow almost anywhere in your body or under your skin.
There are many different types of cysts. Most cysts are benign, or noncancerous.
What is a mole?
A mole is cluster of pigmented skin cells that appear flat or raised on the surface of the skin. Most moles are harmless, but a proportion of them become malignant and develop into dangerous skin cancers.
Are skin lumps and bumps dangerous?
The majority of skin lumps and bumps will be benign and not dangerous at all. That said, depending on what exact type of lump they are, they they can be extremely dangerous if allowed to develop unchecked.
We recommend seeking professional opinion if you have a skin lump or bump on your body. If it is painful, itchy or bleeding, we suggest you do so urgently. It should also be seen urgently, if it is growing and changing size, shape and colour.
Where on my body can I have skin lumps and bumps removed?
Skin lumps, bumps, tags, warts, cysts and moles can be removed from anywhere on the body.
Can I have my skin lumps and bumps removed for cosmetic reasons?
Absolutely. The most common motivation for removing these benign blemishes is cosmetic. It is only in a minority of cases where skin cancer is suspected that they will be removed for medical reasons.
Will excision or cryotherapy be painful?
Surgical excision of skin tags, warts, and moles is not painful as it is performed under local anaesthetic. You should not feel a thing.
Cryotherapy takes between 5 and 10 seconds per treatment, and is usually well tolerated. You should expect to feel a localised sensation of cooling on the surface of your skin.
Will skin lumps and bumps go away on their own?
Once they have formed, skin lumps and bumps are unlikely to go away on their own. If their appearance is bothering you, you will need to seek cosmetic treatment to remove them.
Will skin lumps and bumps return after treatment?
Surgical excision or cryotherapy will permanently remove the skin lump or bump targeted by treatment. It will not prevent new lumps and bumps appearing in new locations on the skin
Will there be scarring?
Our dermatologists and plastic surgeons are experts at managing the scarring process. Whilst there may well be a minor pink or white scar, these will typically fade with time
How long is recovery time?
Recovery time should be instant. You will be able to immediately resume daily activities in most cases.
You may be asked to wear a dressing for a few days, and the site of treatment may be a little tender.
Complications are rare.
