I have a bunch of tiny skin..

In the past I have went to the drs. to have them removed. But the last time I did that dr... remarked to me, how many more times are you going to do this, I replied as many times as they grow back.... I suppose.

I was wondering if I could possibly remove them myself?

I think they look so ugly and especially when you wear a sleevless top in the spring and summer time..

Is there any thing.....like that stuff you numb your gums with..would that numb the skin tag moke enough to cut it off myself and then maybe dab it with a septic pencil or alchol?

And does anyone know what causes them?

Thanks to all that answers my question...... Carol in OH

well i think they are ugly to and well i think your doc should not have said that, try doctor shoals*(spelled wrong food care) but they might do something of removal of tags because they do

You could continue to spend lots of money having these removed or you could spend 25 cents on a spool of thread. Just have anybody tie a short thread around each skin tag. Tie each one close to the skin & tight. Do this for however many hundreds of them you have. With the blood supply cut off, they will fall off in 2 - 3 days. No pain - no blood. That will be two hundred $, please.
