Many people are unaware but one of the best cures for skin tags is tea tree oil. Many people opt to have surgery to remove skin tags, but this can be expensive, painful and leave an ugly mark on your skin for a short period of time. There is a more natural way to remove the skin tag at home for little to no money.
All you need is a bottle of organic, pharmaceutical grade tea tree essential oil and a cotton applicator, or q-tip. Apply a small amount of tea tree oil to the skin tag 3 times daily. After about 2 weeks you should see the skin tag start to reduce in size. After about 4 weeks the skin tag should nearly have disappeared all together.
If you want to expedite the skin tag removal process try dabbing organic apple cider vinegar (with the mother) to the skin tag in between the tea tree oil application process. The two working together could cut the drying process significantly if you adhere to the daily schedule and don’t skip applications.
Safety precaution:
Many skin tags develop near the eye and especially on the eye lid. Tea tree is a very strong essential oil and you should exercise extreme caution when applying the essential oil near the opening of the eye. If you happen to get the oil in your eye, flush it out for at least 10 minutes. You should make sure you flush out the eye for long enough where there is no residual burning sensation. As always, if you feel your skin is too sensitive for pure essential oils, please dilute it in a carrier oil or in water!
