Skin blemishes are common and can present in many different forms, from small bumps to areas of pigmentation.
While most are harmless, many people choose to have them assessed or removed for cosmetic reasons or comfort.
Skin lesions can develop due to sun exposure, ageing, viral infections, or natural changes in the skin.

Skin Tags: Small, soft, flesh-coloured growths found in skin folds like the neck, underarms, or eyelids. Very common and benign, though they may catch or become irritated.
Warts: Rough skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can appear anywhere on the body and may spread through contact. Often removed for comfort or cosmetic reasons.
Verrucae: A type of wart found on the soles of the feet. They can become painful under pressure and may spread if untreated.
Milia: Small, firm, light-coloured bumps often mistaken for whiteheads. Caused by keratin trapped beneath the skin's surface, commonly on the face. Harmless but frequently removed for cosmetic reasons.
Cherry Angioma: Small red or purple spots caused by clusters of blood vessels. Common with age and completely benign, though they can be removed if they bleed or catch.
