Skin tags are something you might have but you just might not know what it is. It is basically just growths along the surface of the skin. These growths can be either benign or malignant or both, and they usually look like moles or bumpy discolorations. They are not painful or cancerous and can be found anywhere on the surface of your skin.
They have the tendency to appear in the places of folds of the skin such as:
- Armpits
- Groin
- Thighs
- Eyelids
- Neck
- Under The Breasts

If the skin tag is really small it can fall off on its own and not bother you, you can even accidentally rub them off your skin with your hand. But if your skin tags are quite big they need minor half-invasive procedures if you want to remove them.
There are several methods that are used to remove skin tags:
