Skin tags are very common among people of all ages and
both sexes, particularly among middle-aged and older people.
To make the skin appear smooth and healthy, people usually
choose to remove
skin tags from their body. Various medical techniques
are available to remove skin tags. However, many people
are more interested in herbal skin tag treatment due to
its non-invasive nature and also because herbal skin tag
treatment is comparatively inexpensive. In addition, it
does not require you to visit a doctor/surgeon for cryotherapy
/ skin
tag freezing, but treats the skin tags safely from
the comfort of your home. Following are some of the tried
sources of herbal skin tag treatment.
Castor Oil
Castor oil is a proven herbal skin tag treatment that
is also popularly used for treating some other skin
conditions. Castor oil is extracted from Ricinus communis
and can be used as an effective herbal skin tag treatment
at home. To make the remedy, castor oil is mixed with
baking soda and stirred until the mixture takes the
form of a paste. It should be applied then to skin tags
three times daily. In a few weeks, the skin tags will
become dry and eventually fall off.
Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil has been used as an effective herbal skin
tag treatment. Its use for removing skin tags is
even simpler than that of castor oil. With a clean cotton
ball, tea tree oil should be applied to the skin tags
three times daily for about two weeks. The skin tags
will become dry and fall off. Tea tree oil is also known
to stimulate the immune system for fighting off infections.
For safety reasons, tea tree oil should not be applied
to skin tags that are near the eyes.
Apple Cider Vinegar
A well-known herbal skin tag treatment is apple cider
vinegar. It can be applied skin tags with a soft and
clean cotton ball a few times daily. The cotton ball
should be held on the tags gently for about half a minute.
It is important to remember that apple cider vinegar
should not be used on skin tags on the eyelids or anywhere
near eyes. Also, the user should wash his/her hands
thoroughly after applying apple cider vinegar to skin
tags.
Dermisil
Some herbal extracts available in health stores are
good for removing
skin tags. Dermisil is one such popular herbal skin
tag treatment. It has some effective ingredients from
medicinal plants including Ricinus communis. Depending
on the size of the tags, Dermisil makes skin tags disappear
in two to six weeks. It can also be used by children
above the age of five years. However, Dermisil is not
recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women. Also,
it should not be applied to skin tags on eyelids or
to those which are close to the eyes.
