Before I tell you how to remove skin tags using home remedies, let me give you a quick overview of skin tags.

What are skin tags causes?

Causes of skin tags lie in an abnormal growth of cells. However, skin tags are benign and are not cancerous. They are acquired at some point and found often in people over 60. They can also be found in children and younger adults; there are no real rules who can get them. Increased level of hormones might increase the chance of acquiring skin tags.

Areas of the skin that are susceptible to rubbing (neck, folds, underarms, eyelids, under the breast) are most likely to have skin tags.

Skin tags can be easily removed either at the doctors office or at home using various home remedies. So, how to remove skin tags?

Dusting spray

Yes, the same one you would use to clean your keyboard. This method is similar to the one doctors use to freeze the skin tag off. Using a canned dusting spray, aim well at the skin tag and spray a few times. It can happen that you might not be able to aim well and in that case, spray some dusting spray on a Q-tip and rub the skin tag. Be careful not to spray the area around the skin tag, the dusting spray will freeze the skin tag and it should fall off within a few days.

Tea tree oil

Tea tree oil is a strong antiseptic and alleged to work well for removing skin tags. Same as with oregano oil: apply tea tree oil with a Q-tip and repeat until the skin tag has started to shrivel, has turned dark, or has become crusty.

Clear nail polish

Clear nail polish can also be used to remove warts. Simply apply some on the skin tag and repeat this a few times.

Apple cider vinegar

Using a Q-tip or a cotton ball, apply apple cider vinegar on the skin tag and leave on for 20 or so minutes. Do not over-do this as apple cider vinegar can irritate the skin. You should notice the difference in the skin tag in a few days
