Got Embarrassing Skin Tags?
Skin tags can cause embarrassment and even discomfort when rubbed or caught in jewelry or clothing.
Home solutions (such as snipping off or tying with string) are not the answer as they could lead to bleeding, burns and even infection while regular over-the-counter products are often ineffective in getting rid of skin tags because they cannot penetrate deep into the skin.
Why are skin tags sometimes difficult to get rid of?
The problem is that our skin is a barrier designed to keep bacteria and infections out so when we come to use an over the counter medication to try to treat skin tags, we often find that they are unable to penetrate deep into the skin to efficiently deliver any active ingredients to do the job. Such medication is of little or no use if it is unable to penetrate the skin’s barrier to treat your skin tags.
What are skin tags?
When skin tags first appear, they are small and painless growths that hang off the skin but those small sacs of skin can become inflamed, red and irritated.
Skin tags can be unattractive and even embarrassing.
They vary in color and size and although completely harmless, some people choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons or because they are catching on clothing.
Why do skin tags appear?
They are formed by the collagen tissue and blood vessels covered by a layer of thin skin. While anyone can develop skin tags it is more likely in the case of individuals who are:
- Overweight.
- Suffering from Type 2 Diabetes.
- An older person.
- Suffering from an hormonal imbalance.
The most likely areas for skin tags to appear are:
- Face.
- Eyelids.
- Under the breast.
- Groin area.
- Upper chest region.
What kind of solution is effective?
Our own H-Skin Tags Formula is specially designed to penetrate skin, helping to carry its ingredients deep into the affected area to calm inflammation, helping to promote skin repair.
Our 100% all natural product uses only the highest quality ingredients with NO chemicals, artificial preservatives, lanolin, alcohol, parabens, petrochemicals or fragrance.
H-Skin Tags Formula is safe to use anywhere on the body where skin tags appear. You just need to be aware that eyelids can be very sensitive so care must be taken when applying onto skin tags anywhere on the eyelids. As long as the tag is not too close to the eye, and you can apply the formula without getting it in your eye, you can proceed with care.
