You can use the natural home remedies to remove skin tags, they work pretty well and leave no minor injuries. Apply the home remedies severally for a specific period of time and not the changes that occur if the skin tag is drying up or tends to shrink then it means the medication is effective. If it is not working then check whether you are using the medication properly, you may be using the medication in the wrong way or you may be using the wrong medication.

You can tie a piece of string around the skin tag tightly and leave it, after a few days or hours the skin tag will fall off. You can also choose to cut the skin tag on your own or have someone help you, ensure that the instruments you use are clean and sterile.
