Why Do We Get Skin Tags? Causes, Risks & How We Safely Remove Them at TSY Beauty Care

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

⭐ What Are Skin Tags?

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.

⭐ Why Do Skin Tags Appear? (Causes)

🔸 1. Constant Friction (Most Common Cause)

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.

🔸 2. Skin Aging & Slower Metabolism

As we age, the skin’s renewal process slows down.
Dead skin cells accumulate easily, leading to small raised growths.

🔸 3. Hormonal Changes

Pregnancy, menopause, high stress levels, and obesity can cause hormonal fluctuations that trigger more skin tags.

🔸 4. Genetics

Some people are simply more prone to developing skin tags.
Once the first one appears, more may follow.

⭐ What Happens If You Don’t Treat Skin Tags?

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:

❗ 1. They Multiply Over Time

Friction stimulates more skin tags to grow.
Some clients come in after a few years with “1 skin tag that became more than 10.”

❗ 2. They Become Bigger, Softer & More Noticeable

Small ones may be subtle, but if left untreated, they can grow longer, softer, or swing slightly — making them more obvious.

❗ 3. Larger Skin Tags Take Longer to Remove

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.”

❗ 4. They Can Get Irritated from Clothing or Accessories

Many clients come in with skin tags that are already red, painful, or inflamed from rubbing.

❗ 5. Cutting Them Yourself Is Dangerous

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.

⭐ How We Safely Remove Skin Tags at TSY Beauty Care

We use a professional skin tag removal device designed specifically for different skin tag sizes.

【Step 1】Skin Assessment

We evaluate the size, depth, and number of skin tags.
(Large or eyelid-area tags require extra care.)

【Step 2】Numbing Cream

To ensure comfort, we apply numbing cream before the procedure.
Most clients say:
👉 “I only felt a tiny sensation — very tolerable.”

【Step 3】Professional Skin Tag Removal

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.

【Step 4】Small Scab Formation

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.

【Step 5】Post-Treatment Care

We provide calming and healing care,
and guide you on simple aftercare to prevent marks.

⭐ When Should You Get a Skin Tag Removed?

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.
