What are skin tags

Skin tags are overgrowths of skin which, in the upper body, commonly occur in the eyelids, neck, armpit or under the breast areas. They can be skin coloured or pigmented. They generally cause no symptoms, but can be unsightly if over a certain size and may catch or rub on clothing. Skin tags may be present due to a genetic predisposition, or may occur as a result of longstanding low-grade friction, caused for example by skin or clothing rubbing on skin.
