  • Baking Soda and Castor Oil: Make a paste with baking soda and castor oil, apply it to the skin tag, and cover with a bandage. Repeat this process nightly until the tag disappears.
  • Lemon Juice: The citric acid in lemon juice can help dry out skin tags. Apply fresh lemon juice to the skin tag using a cotton swab daily until it dries out and falls off.
  • Iodine: An application of liquid iodine can help in breaking down the skin cells of the tag. Apply a drop of iodine directly on the skin tag and cover it with a bandage. Be careful to apply it only to the skin tag to avoid irritation.

Before trying any home remedy, make sure the growth is indeed a skin tag and not something else. If you have any doubts or if the skin tag is unusually large or located at a sensitive spot, it’s best to consult with a healthcare provider. Each of these methods is simple to do at home with ingredients you might already have in your kitchen or medicine cabinet. Here’s to clear skin, comfortably achieved at your convenience!
