Home remedies

  • Tea tree oil: Simply apply it on your skin tag and cover it with a bandage. 
  • Apple cider vinegar: Soak a cotton ball in the ACV solution and affix it to your skin tag using a bandage. Do this for 15-30 mins each day.
  • Fresh garlic: Apply freshly crushed garlic to your skin tag and cover it with a bandage. Leave it overnight. 
  • Vitamin E: For this, you'd need liquid Vitamin E, so you can apply it to your skin tag.

OTC options

  • Freezing kits - These products are based on liquid nitrogen and they help freeze off the skin tag to cause it to dry and fall off.
  • Burning kits - These products help you simply burn off your skin tag using a device. The results are usually faster compared to home remedies.

In-office procedures

  • Cauterization - Your doctor burns off the skin tag.
  • Excision - Your doctor cuts off the skin tag.
  • Cryotherapy - Your doctor freezes off the skin tag.
