Home Remedies for Skin Tags


1. Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is the best home remedy for skin tags. The acid in apple cider vinegar breaks down the excess cells in the skin tag and naturally removes them.
  • Dip a cotton swab in apple cider vinegar and apply it directly on the skin tag. There will be a stinging sensation for a few minutes that will soon stop.
  • Leave it on for three or four hours, then wash it off with warm water.
  • Follow this remedy at least three times daily for two to four weeks to eliminate the tags.
Note: If you have sensitive skin, dilute the apple cider vinegar with a little water before applying it. To avoid scarring, apply olive oil or vitamin E oil on the affected area on a regular basis.

2. Tea Tree Oil
  • Being very acidic in nature, tea tree oil is also a good remedy for skin tags. This oil will dry out the skin tag and gradually it will fall off on its own without any pain. Plus, the antiseptic property of tea tree oil will protect the skin after the tag has been removed.
  • Dip a cotton ball in water and squeeze out the excess water.
  • Put three or four drops of tea tree oil on the wet cotton ball.
  • Rub the cotton ball over the skin tag, massaging gently in circular motions.
  • Leave it on for a few hours before washing it off.
  • Repeat this three times daily for a few weeks or until the skin tag vanishes.
Note: If you have very sensitive skin, make sure to dilute the tea tree oil with an equal amount of water before application
