Skin tags are those skin lesions that we colloquially call "warts".

Skin tags are BENIGN skin growths that usually appear in areas of friction, such as the neck, armpits and groin most commonly.

Its appearance is more frequent in men than in women and unlike real warts, they are NOT contagious.

We call warts those raised, cluster-shaped skin lesions that are caused by a viral process (Human papillomavirus) and they are not contagious and likely to spread to the surrounding area if they are removed in the wrong way.

The skin tag can cause discomfort due to rubbing or trauma, which is uncomfortable for the patient and is the most common reason for removing them.

How can we remove them?

A health professional can eliminate these lesions through various methods, such as: surgery (generally reserved for large nevi / moles), electrocoagulation, cryotherapy or laser-therapy are some of the options.

It is important to remember that skin tags ARE NOT WARTS, so they should NOT be treated with the classic anti-wart liquids sold in pharmacies, or other popular remedies based on caustics or irritants.
