Skin tags are usually small growths on the skin.
The exact cause is unknown, and it is likely a combination of lifestyle and genetic factors. Skin tags often grow in areas where skin tends to rub against itself.
Some skin tags may have a viral origin (E.g., human papillomavirus [HPV]), and although not infectious, they can increase in number in individuals. Some people suffer from hundreds of them.
Treatment Methods
Cauterization is an Advanced Cosmetic Procedure that is the quickest and easiest way to remove skin tags, fibromas (moles), and milia safely and effectively, without regrowth.
Cauterization is a type of electro-surgery that removes skin tags immediately and prevents regrowth. It is a blood-free procedure with tolerable discomfort.
The wound(s) left after the treatment heal well. Sometimes, a scar can be observed even after the healing process is fully complete. To prevent scabbing, scabs should not be scratched.
When scabs come off by themselves, high-SPF sun cream (preferably SPF 100) should be applied for a minimum of 3 months.
