How to Get Rid of Skin Tags

February 26, 2009 by  

There’s a lot of free advise floating around online on How to get rid of skin tags. Some of it good…some not so good.

One article suggested that I just cut it off. Well call me a chicken or anything else for that matter but I just don’t have the guts to take a pair of scizzors and cut my body. It is not just the pain that I am worried about, it’s also the blood stopping techniques the article goes on to describe.

There has to be a better less brutal way to remove skin tags

Here are two ways I found that seem…well…a little less brutal.

First way to get rid of skin tags is to use fingernail polish. For obvious reasons you will want to use clear. Apply it to your tag mole at least twice a day. Make sure you cover it completely. Try not to miss applications because it can slow the removal process.

In a few days you will see the tag mole start to shrink and in time you will be able to just scratch it off. Try to be very accurate with the finger nail polish because you may experience some minor skin irritation if you get it on your skin.

Another way to remove skin tags is to tie a string around them. Ok…I know this sounds really silly but it actually works. The pressure of the string will strangle the tag mole. Depending on how stubborn the little booger is it should start to dry up and fall of in a few days to a couple of weeks.

Ok…I found it really hard to write about How To Get Rid Of Skin Tags and keep a straight face at the same time…makes me laugh that folks will actually try this stuff. How about you?

If you want a professional to tell you How To Get Rid Of Skin Tags …use this link…If you are like me and tons of other thinking adults, there’s just too much free information available online. Free is good…don’t get me wrong…but when it comes to my health and my body, common sense tells me to seek professional help.

    The term acne is a generic term that is used to describe an inflammatory skin condition affecting the face, back, and possibly chest. Acne is common during adolescence. This infection of the skin is caused by changes in the sebaceous glands, which are the tiny glands found under the skin which provide oils for the skin. Acne tends to result in redness and soreness at the point of infection and can be a cosmetic issue. This article shares the specific symptoms, causes and treatments associated with acne and what you can do to self-treat this condition.
