Skin tags, otherwise known as acrochordons, soft fibromas, or fibroepithelial polyps are harmless growths that can appear anywhere on your skin, but often develop on the neck, eyelids, or underarms. They Usually appear on areas with a lot of friction and areas where the skin overlaps itself, like the neck folds for example. Which is a very common place. And they hang from the surface of the skin on a thin piece of tissue called a stalk - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUzo9X-7RV8
What Causes Skin Tags? Are Skin Tags Normal?
There are estimates that almost 50 to 60% of adults will develop at least one skin tag in their lifetime. The probability of their occurrence actually increases when youre about 40 years old. I think a good place to start is finding out why they keep occurring. If you figure out why they keep occurring, you can spend less time on removing them. And there are about 4 reasons. The first is if you have unmanaged diabetes, second: obesity, third is: metabolic syndrome, and fourth is: if you have a family history of skin tags. Treating these underlying conditions, especially if there is insulin resistance involved in the body, can be a great place to start.
