Skin tags are an overproduction of cells in the top layers of the skin. They appear as flesh-coloured or slightly darker growths on the surface of the skin, are typically soft to the touch, and vary in size from very small (a few millimetres) to larger than a centimetre. They are often found in areas where there is a lot of friction on the skin, such as under the arms, bra strap, neck line, eyelids, and bikini line.
Skin tags occur when extra skin cells grow over each other. They tend to develop when the skin rubs against itself, so they are more common in adults. They develop on both men and women and tend to occur more frequently in people who are overweight or have diabetes.
While skin tags are harmless and generally do not require treatment, they can be removed for cosmetic reasons or if they are causing discomfort or irritation.
Although skin tags are harmless and usually do not cause any pain, they can become unsightly and may get caught on things. Although it maybe tempting to remove them yourself, it is strongly advised that you seek treatment from a specialist to remove them. They can be removed using either the burning or freezing technique.
