A skin tag is not cancerous so you can relax, everything will be ok. Skin Tags are just a soft, skin-colored growth that hangs from the surface of the skin. It is attached to your body by a thin piece of tissue called a stalk. Its medical name is "Acrochordon." Removing skin tags is not a problem, but, insurance does not cover the costs of removing them. There are several removal methods available to you, some are painless, some are not.
Where do Skin Tags Come From??
Skin tags usually appear on people as they age. They are actually quite common in people over 60, more common in women than in men. Research shows that if your Mom or Dad had them you will too. Skin tags may also develop in women after pregnancy.
Are Skin Tags a Serious Problem?
Skin tags are a problem because the location of the skintag may be irritated by the constant rubbing of clothing or jewelry. Skin tags appear most often on the neck - inside tiny folds. Other common locations are the armpits, beneath the breasts or in the genital region. They can also be located on places like the hands and face where they can be unsightly.
My skin tags changed!!
When a skin tag first appears - it is as a tiny soft bump on the skin. Over time, it grows into a less than attractive skin tag. A skin tag is painless, although after a few hours in the wrong clothes they can be rubbed raw. Anyone can recognize a skin tag easily by looking at it. A skin tag's characteristic appearance is soft, easily moveable, flesh-colored or slightly darker and usually attached to the skin surface by a stalk, you don't need any expert to point one out. Skin tags are easy to move or wiggle back and forth, BUT, If you notice that a skin growth is too firm to be wiggled easily, is a different color than surrounding skin, is multicolored or has raw or bleeding areas, ask your doctor to examine it. If it is not obvious that your skin growth is a skin tag, your doctor may want to do a biopsy, which means they will use a scaplel to remove a small piece of skin that will be examined in a laboratory.
Preventing Skin Tags
There is no way to prevent skin tags. Your doctor can cut them off with sharp scissors, a sharp blade or, less commonly, by freezing or burning them off at the stalk. Bleeding can be stopped with a chemical (aluminum chloride) or electric (cauterizing) treatment which can hurt and leave a scar. Skin tag removal is considered a cosmetic problem so, as we said earlier,insurance will NOT pay for their removal. Average Doctor's fees for removing skin tags is now upwards of $250.00... there are more inexpensive methods of skin tag removal.
