Almost each other human being in United States has a skin tag.
These growths are harmful or risky, but rather bothersome and aesthetically not pleasing.
Skin tags can be common occurrence and resemble elastic, hanging skin chunks.
They consist of blood vessels along with collagen.
Both components are trapped and forced into developing a blemish.
They are likely to be brownish in color.
Sometimes they may be silky, but more frequently are slightly wrinkled.
At the early phases tags are rather minor and can stay tiny, but sometimes can grow large, as much as the size of the big grape.
Go to doctor, in case you have a question about it and observe bizarre color or pink sphere around it, or it is bleeding.
In case of bizarre appearances, medical doctor will take a small section from tag and send to the lab intended for biopsy.
In many cases, there isn't any need to worry as they aren't malicious.
These growths are not infectious and can be easy removed at the doctor's office as a minor surgery or else at home.
Among the best known surgical methods are cauterizing, freezing or laser treatment.
Cauterizing is practice when tag is burned using a special heated medical needle.
Local anesthesia is often applied.
The most important risk of this procedure is likelihood of scaring.
Freezing is another popular method.
Dermatologist applies liquid nitrogen.
Freezing offers instant results and usually just one visit is enough to eliminate it.
Similar to cauterizing there is a risk of scaring.
Laser removal.
Definitely the top choice treatment which provides fast results.
Laser treatment is applied to the growth and it is evaporated.
As a result of clear-cut laser application, danger of scaring is minimized.
The only real disadvantage of this practice is higher cost.
Possibly the best skin tag remover is the one you can do at home.
These are non invasive methods and skin tissue won't be damaged.
In this way scaring will probably be less likely to occur.
One of the best methods for home is known as ligation.
Take a dental floss and bond it around the base of the skin growth.
Leave the floss tight around for few days.
The idea of this method is to interrupt the blood supply to the tag.
When the blood flow stops, it dries out and in few days it is possible for you to cut it off without risk of bleeding.
This practice works best for large outgrows.
Another approach is to apply nail polish.
Cover the skin tag with nail polish and re-apply it a number of times per day.
In few days, it will dry out and then you can easily slice it off.
Yet an additional natural and safe removal method is to use a mixture of castor oil and baking soda the tag and leave it for couple of hours.
Do again the process until skin tag falls off.
To sum up, skin tags are harmless skin blemishes, which affect about half of the people, but luckily they can be simply removed either by physician or at home.
