Skin tags under eyes?

I have two small skin tags under my right eye that have appeared in the last 3 or 4 months. I've done some research on them and I know they aren't harmful or anything like that. According to what I read, they normally appear in mid-life or after. I'm only 18, so I'm a little confused. Does anyone know why I have gotten these? Are there any creams or anything like that that I can use to prevent more?





Thanks.

Skin tags under eyes?
I've been told that they can be caused by irritation due to eye allergies. I've had a few bumps (no tags, though) and they went away by themselves within a few months.
Reply:The dermatologist can remove them...
Reply:this may sound wierd but i had them in my arm pits(im only 13) and my doctor just cut them off and they didnt hurt idk about ur eyes i doubt theres any cremes...
Reply:I get them all over my body, have not found no creams to get rid of them I go to dermotoligist to have them burnt off....
Reply:i have one under my eye too,and i have had them since i was like 14. i also have a couple on my neck. i havent found anything to get rid of them except my doctor freezing them off
Reply:Some people are just genetically more likely to have them. You can ask for them to be removed by a professional, or cheaper just cut them off yourself which is what many people choose to do.
Reply:go to the dermatologist and get them removed or they might freeze them off and then they should fall off in a while
Reply:if they are indeed just skin tags, tell your doc. you want them removed, it takes like 10 minutes, he will numb the area, cut it off w/ a blade, then throw a band aid on it... and you will be good to go.





He may send it to a lab just to make sure it is just a skin tag... hope this helps.
Reply:Don't know why you got them but the doctor can take them off really easily.
Reply:They aren't harmful, they just are annoying, my partner has them also, not just in one place either. Our doctor put dental floss around the base and tied it really tight, then because there was no blood supply to it, it fell off, but that was under his arm, I don't think you'd look too good with dental floss hanging on your face lol, but there has to be some way of riding yourself of them, try asking your doctor or pharmacist, they might be able to help you, Goodluck!!!
