Doing Away With Skin Tags

Q. What is the home remedy for getting rid of skin tags on the neck?

A. Dermatologists can remove skin tags surgically. Some readers of this column also report success with a liquid bandage called New-Skin. Although this remedy doesn’t work for everyone, here is one testimonial: “I tried the liquid New-Skin on my skin tags.  I apply two coats one time per day. Within a week to ten days, they shrivel up and fall off. Thanks for a great tip!”
