They also removed the skin tag when they removed the mole at the dermatology clinic~

I finally removed the skin tag that had been living on my neck for a long time while I was at the dermatologist to get a mole removed.

Since it was removed with a laser, there are no scars, and it was removed very cleanly, so I don't know how comfortable I am.

I really regret not removing the mucus and just living with it.

Skin tags are a very common skin lesion, with approximately 46% of the global population having at least one.

The medical term is 'fibrous pseudotumor,' and it is called a rat tail because it resembles a rat's teat.

Since it is a benign tumor, there are no negative effects, but if it is in a visible area, it looks unattractive and subtly protrudes, causing many discomforts.

In my case, a skin tag has been present along the neckline where the necklace passes through since I was young.

When I was young, I didn't wear a necklace, so it didn't matter, and the size was so small that it was barely visible.

But this tends to gradually get a little bigger as I get older.

It's right in a visible spot when I put on clothes, and since it got a little bigger, it looks like a booger is stuck there, which I find really disgusting...

Above all, my hair or necklace chain keeps getting caught on the skin tags;;;

It keeps getting hurt and bleeding without falling; it was really painful.

 

 

It just appeared on my neck like this, and I think it was about 0.4mm.

It is said that if you tightly wrap a skin tag with a home remedy using hair, it will fall off automatically because blood circulation is cut off;; I tried wrapping it once, but I didn't see any effect at all.

I just live my life without it being too inconvenient, so I left it alone. Then, my friend said she was going to get a mole removed at the dermatologist, so I went along. While getting a few moles removed myself, I asked the doctor if skin tags on my neck could also be removed.

I asked, and they said it should be fine... They used a laser, and it came off cleanly and smoothly. Haha

I didn't plan to remove it, so I didn't apply anesthesia cream, but it didn't hurt as much as I thought, and along with a burning smell, the skin tag that had been with me for over 30 years disappeared.

It's so simple, yet I was so frustrated with myself for just living like this.

After removing the mole, I followed the same aftercare procedure by applying Duoderm for a few days, disinfecting, and so on for about a week, and the scar didn't remain; it disappeared neatly.

But... the problem is, it's been about three years since I had the skin tag removed, but~~

It seems that the papillomas are gradually growing back in that area after checking again after a long time.

 

Haha, it's a crappy display, lol. Can you see it by any chance?

 

 

It's not very noticeable yet, but I'm so used to that spot that I can feel it very faintly starting to rise.

Wow, such a terrifying vitality!!!

If it happens to grow later, I will have it removed again at the dermatology clinic.

The exact cause of the development of skin tags is not yet clearly understood...

These days, there's a lot of advertising for skin tag ointments~ but apparently, their effectiveness is quite limited.

Just like I tried to tie and remove a skin tag with my hair, I think many people try to remove it themselves secretly. However, since attempting this at home can lead to side effects such as bacterial infection, pigmentation, or skin depression, it’s better not to do it.

I think the best way is to simply visit the dermatologist like me and have it safely removed with laser treatment.

Removing just one mole typically costs around 20,000 won, but in the case of a large distribution of skin tags, the removal cost may be higher. However, it's best to remove them safely.

If you receive counseling, the cost of laser treatment for the same area probably won't be very expensive.

It's not really painful and can be easily removed, so don't worry and have the skin tag removed with laser.
