Skin Concerns
A Guide to Skin Tag Management
Skin tags, also known as acrochordons, are common growths frequently found in skin folds around the neck, armpits, groin, or eyelids. While these growths are typically benign, they can cause physical irritation depending on their location.
Skin tags are usually small, soft, skin-coloured growths that can range in size. They are composed of collagen fibres, blood vessels, and fat cells. While the exact cause is not fully understood, contributing factors may include:
Friction or skin rubbing.
Hormonal fluctuations.
Increased body mass index.
Genetic predisposition.
Metabolic factors such as diabetes.
When to Consider Treatment
While generally harmless, skin tags might be addressed if they:
Cause physical discomfort or irritation.
Catch on clothing or jewellery.
Are a source of concern regarding their appearance.
