I have had a bunch of skin tags removed. most by excision. A few by freezing. I prefer the excision method. It is very easy to have done by either a plastic surgeon or a dermatologist.

Thanks for that. I think in the uk it is classed as cosmetic so would have to pay for it. Did they ever return?

I developed new tags but the ones removed did not return. Removal is not always covered here either. They have to be "irritated" tags for it to be covered. I think I paid $179.00 to have about 10 tags excised.

I think in UK you should be able to get one done for around £85, then the second one probably £40. If you have lots you may get down even further. I am sure the facility will be offered near you. Amazon do offer a skin tag removal pen, but goodness knows how good or bad it is.

Thanks for that. I am doing some research for my son. He as lots around his neck which catch on shirts and polo shirts.

Poor thing. I know some can be really nasty and annoying.
