Skin tags are completely harmless and very common. Currently, there are no highly recommended prescription creams or over-the-counter medications to safely remove them at home. While some over-the-counter freezing kits exist, using them on your neck carries a risk of scarring, irritation, or skin discoloration. The safest and most effective approach is to have a doctor or dermatologist remove them in their office. They can quickly and painlessly snip them off, freeze them with liquid nitrogen (cryotherapy), or use heat (electrocautery) to remove them. This minimizes infection and scarring risks. Please avoid attempting to cut or tie them off at home.
