What Are Skin
Tags?
|
Introduction
A skin tag is a common, benign
(non-cancerous) condition which consists of a bit of skin that projects
from the surrounding skin and may appear attached to the skin. Skin tags
can vary quite a bit in appearance. They may be smooth or irregular, flesh
coloured or more deeply pigmented, and either simply be raised above the
surrounding skin or have a stalk (a peduncle) so that the skin tag hangs
from the skin.
Skin tags can occur almost anywhere
there is skin. However, favourite areas for tags are the eyelids, neck,
armpits (axillae), upper chest, and groin.
They are much more common with age,
beginning in middle age and they tend to be somewhat more prevalent in
women than men.
The outer layer of the skin (the
epidermis) shows overgrowth (hyperplasia) and it encloses an underlying
layer of skin (the dermis) in which the normally-present collagen fibres
appear abnormally loose and swollen. A skin tag is medically termed a
Cutaneous Papilloma or an Acrochordon, however, a skin tag is best known
as a skin tag.
Treatment
In cases in which a skin tag is
irritated or cosmetically unwanted, treatment may be done by freezing the
tag with liquid nitrogen, tying off the tag with a thread or suture so as
to cut off the blood supply, cutting off (excising) the tag with a scalpel
or scissors, or by using our herbal product Mole & Wart EZ Clear™.
If you choose Mole & Wart EZ Clear™ treatment is a 20 minute, one off treatment. A scab is
formed and will naturally dry and fall off in between 7 & 21 days.
