Is there an easy way to get rid of skin tags?

My brother is loaded with skin tags. Occasionly he will go to the dermatologist and he'll remove a few dozen, but it's costly and time consuming. I read in a newspaper that some people use Sally Hanson nail hardener to get rid of these skin tags. Does anyone know anything about this and if so, how does it work?

Is there an easy way to get rid of skin tags?
yes it does.I am a certified dermatological tech. what this does when applied is if cuts the air off to the tag and it will dry up and either pull off or fall off with little or no pain.
Reply:Don't know about that but you could try tying a piece of string tight around the bottom of them then eventually they will die and drop off
Reply:I get a lot of these. I clean the area with alcohol and then tie or have someone tie - dental floss very tight at the base of the skin tag. It drps off in a few days. Sometimes I do 10 or 15 at a time. I have not had any bad experience from this.
Reply:i have never seen anything that recommended using a nail hardener on any part of the body besides the nails.





the problem with skin tags is that they generally will reappear even after you've had several removed, and - its genetic, there is no "cure," you're either predisposed to getting them or your not. the safest method of removal is by the dermatologist. my grandmother said she used to tie a piece of string around the tag until it fell off, but again, they just grow back somewhere else.
Reply:I've never heard of a skin tag! What is that?
Reply:I don't know about Sally Hansen products for this condition, BUT, I DO know that my husband had large skin tags. He went to our regular doctor, and she just froze them all off......just gone. They have not come back.
Reply:I not really sure have been trying for quite a while. I have them all over my neck and even a couple on my eyelids. I heard some about using the wart remover that freezes the wart. Not sure of the name. But not sure if it works have not tried it.
