Many clients who visit TSY Beauty Care always ask us the same questions:
“Why am I getting skin tags? Why do they seem to be increasing?”
Skin tags are extremely common, especially around the neck, underarms, chest, and eyelids.
They are harmless but can affect appearance — and if left untreated, they usually become more obvious over time.
In this blog, you will learn:
👉 Why skin tags develop
👉 What happens if you don’t remove them
👉 Why cutting them off yourself is dangerous
👉 How we remove skin tags safely in just ONE session at TSY Beauty Care
Skin tags are benign (non-cancerous) soft skin growths that appear as small, raised bumps.
Common areas include:
Neck
Chest
Underarms
Eyelids and eye area
Any area with frequent friction
They are not caused by bacteria or viruses.
The main reasons they appear are skin friction, slower skin metabolism, and aging.
Collars, necklaces, underarms, chest area…
Friction in these areas stimulates the skin to form small raised bumps — eventually becoming skin tags.
More friction → Higher chance of skin tags
Bigger skin tags → More friction → Grow larger or multiply
This is why many people keep noticing new skin tags appearing.
As we age, the skin’s renewal process slows down.
Dead skin cells accumulate easily, leading to small raised growths.
Pregnancy, menopause, high stress levels, and obesity can cause hormonal fluctuations that trigger more skin tags.
Some people are simply more prone to developing skin tags.
Once the first one appears, more may follow.
Skin tags will NOT disappear on their own.
They also won’t “dry up and fall off naturally.”
Instead, they will:
Become more visible
Keep increasing in number
Common issues include:
Friction stimulates more skin tags to grow.
Some clients come in after a few years with “1 skin tag that became more than 10.”
Small ones may be subtle, but if left untreated, they can grow longer, softer, or swing slightly — making them more obvious.
Small: quick, clean removal
Large: may take longer and might bleed slightly (normal & safe)
That’s why we always recommend:
“The earlier you treat them, the better.”
Many clients come in with skin tags that are already red, painful, or inflamed from rubbing.
Many people try to:
✘ Cut with scissors
✘ Tie with thread
✘ Burn them at home
Dangers include:
Continuous bleeding
Wound infection
Scarring or dark marks
Growing back larger
Extremely risky around the eyes
These DIY methods are unsafe and not hygienic.
We use a professional skin tag removal device designed specifically for different skin tag sizes.
We evaluate the size, depth, and number of skin tags.
(Large or eyelid-area tags require extra care.)
To ensure comfort, we apply numbing cream before the procedure.
Most clients say:
👉 “I only felt a tiny sensation — very tolerable.”
We use a precise device to remove the skin tag at its base.
What to expect:
Small skin tags: no bleeding
Medium size: may bleed very slightly
Large size: a small amount of bleeding is normal
But:
No pain, no scars, no marks.
We remove the entire base to ensure it won’t grow back — usually in one session.
A tiny scab (dark dot) forms after treatment.
It will naturally fall off in a few days.
Short recovery time, no disruption to daily life.
We provide calming and healing care,
and guide you on simple aftercare to prevent marks.
You should consider removal if:
The skin tag is getting bigger
The number keeps increasing
The neck or face looks uneven or textured
It gets caught on clothing and becomes painful
It’s on the eyelid or affects your appearance
You worry it may grow more over time
Earlier removal → Faster healing → Lower chance of pigmentation.
No. It will usually get bigger or increase in number.
We use numbing cream, so you will only feel a slight sensation.
Small tags won’t bleed.
Bigger ones may bleed a little — completely normal and safe.
No. The treated area forms a small scab and heals naturally without scarring.
Most clients resolve all skin tags in one session.
Skin tags are harmless,
but they will not disappear on their own — and usually get more obvious with time.
With proper treatment,
you can restore smooth and clean-looking skin quickly and safely.
