Some people are doubtful if skin tags are safe to be removed by themselves at home. For as long as the removal methods are done correctly, there is not much risk of getting rid the skin tags by yourself. But before you conduct a home removal remedy, be sure that it is not a malignant tumor. If your skin tag is rapidly growing and the changes in shape and color are highly visible then you would have to consult a dermatologist as these are signs of a malignant tumor.
One of the natural remedies to remove skin tags is the tea tree oil. You will have to wash your skin tag and its vicinity using soap and water. When it is dry, soak a cotton ball in water and add three drops of tea tree oil onto it. Rub the cotton ball against your skin tag. The skin tag will fall off if you do this consistently for a couple of days. You can also use the castor oil. It is completely natural but for better effectiveness, you should mix it with baking soda until it forms a mixture paste then apply it onto your skin tag. Another natural removal remedy is to use herbal extract; for instance the Dermisil.
It is a natural medicine famous for healing severe skin conditions.
There are also other methods to remove skin tags. You can use the fingernail polish. Cover your skin tag using fingernail polish few times a day for several days until the tag falls off. You can also remove the tags by using a string and tying it around the base for a few days. You may use a dental floss or a fishing line. Another remedy will be using a duct tape.
