What is a skin tag?
Skin tags or acrochordon are common, acquired, benign skin growths that look like a small piece of soft, hanging skin. They are harmless growths with some individuals being more prone to tags.
An individual may acquire greater than 50-100 tags through increased weight combined with heredity or other unknown causes. Men and women are equally prone to developing skin tags.
Can creams help?
According to Medicnet.com, "There are no currently medically approved creams for the removal of skin tags. Skin tags are typically removed by physical methods."
