Skin Tags
Skin tags are a kind of skin growth in which short and narrow skin comes out. Skin tags do not harm or cause any pain.
Skin tags are generally found on the neck, upper chest, underarms, and eyelids. Skin tags may be irritating if they sometimes rub along with clothes. Skin tags are scientifically known as acrochordons that occur when the body produces extra cells in the top layer of the skin. Skin tags generally appear around skin folds or where the clothes are likely to rub with skin.
Our treatment
Skin tags though are harmless and don’t cause any pain, people often prefer to remove them for cosmetic or aesthetic reasons. Skin tags when rubbed along with skin, clothing, or jewelry are to be removed due to irritation.
There are several treatments available to remove skin tags. It is not recommended to treat or remove skin tags at home as it may cause bleeding or infection. Here, our dermatologist treats skin tags with several procedures such as cauterization, cryosurgery, ligation, and excision. If you have a skin tag on the eyelid it has to be especially removed by an ophthalmologist, or eye specialist.
