      Hi Alice. The best thing to do to get rid of skin tags is see a GP and they can remove them using a simple freezing treatment. More information is on the NHS website.

      Hi LauraJoseph! That really depends on where it is and how big it is! Best thing would be to ask a school nurse or GP and then decide on the best option – it’s really very easy. If you have one, have you asked your GP already?

      Hi laurajoseph,
      Your GP is the best person to help with this. They are very easy to remove so I would suggest going to your doctor & asking their advice! 🙂

      Hiya Laaura – as everyone else has said best thing to do is see your GP. Skintags are usually really easy to get rid of, but very often you don’t need to get rid of them. your GP can give the best advice.
