Natural Remedies for Skin Tags
Several home remedies may help reduce or remove skin tags naturally. It’s important to exercise caution and avoid irritation, particularly on delicate facial skin.
1. Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)
Apple cider vinegar has mild acidic properties that may help dry out skin tags.
-
Soak a cotton ball in ACV and apply it directly to the skin tag.
-
Secure it with a bandage and leave it for 15–20 minutes.
-
Repeat daily until the skin tag darkens, dries, and eventually falls off.
2. Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is known for its antiseptic and antiviral properties, making it a popular choice for minor skin issues.
-
Dilute a few drops of tea tree oil in a carrier oil (like coconut oil).
-
Apply to the skin tag 2–3 times daily.
