Skin tags on the neck not only affect aesthetics but also impact daily life. Most skin tags on the neck are benign tumors. However, if you want to improve aesthetics and reduce itching caused by these growths, you should seek the help of a dermatologist to remove the excess skin tags.

What are Skin Tags on the Neck?

Skin tags on the neck are small benign tumors that appear around the neck area. They often occur in locations such as the eyelids, cheeks, chest, and especially the neck.

Skin tags on the neck or any other area are considered excess skin protruding above the skin surface, often with a small stalk underneath. These skin tags are benign, painless, and do not pose a threat to other organs.

Individuals aged 25-30 are most prone to developing skin tags. They tend to appear as protrusions with a hard tip, measuring between 1-3mm in size, and are typically yellow, brown, or light pink in color.

Why Do Skin Tags Appear on the Neck?

The causes of skin tags on the neck can be divided into two main categories: direct and indirect causes.

Direct Causes

The direct cause of skin tags on the neck is collagen imbalance. Collagen is responsible for forming and maintaining the skin’s structure. When collagen production becomes excessive, sweat glands may become imbalanced, creating favorable conditions for skin tags to form around the neck or other areas.

Indirect Causes

In addition to collagen imbalance, unhealthy daily habits are also considered a cause of skin tags.

An unbalanced diet, staying up late frequently, and using stimulants can increase the risk of skin tags on the neck or other areas of the skin.

Additionally, research shows that the early stages of skin aging make individuals more prone to skin tags. If you are in this stage, pay extra attention to your body.

Skin Tag Treatment Methods at Wedo

At Wedo Skin Clinic, depending on the condition and size of the skin tags, we will provide the most suitable treatment plan for each individual. Below are the two most commonly used methods.

Non-Invasive Skin Tag Treatment

This method is recommended for individuals with small skin tags. Doctors may prescribe oral medications or topical creams. The main effect of these medications is to inhibit and shrink the skin tags, promoting the regeneration of new skin.

Advantages: Non-invasive, does not affect daily activities.

Disadvantages: Requires a long time for the skin tags to disappear and must follow the doctor’s instructions consistently.

Invasive Treatment Methods

For larger skin tags, doctors often recommend burning or removal procedures. This method does not take much of your time. Below are some advanced treatment methods available at Wedo Skin Clinic:

Skin tag removal using Laser Fractional CO2 technology: This is one of the most advanced skin tag removal techniques today. It penetrates deep into the skin tissue without causing damage to surrounding areas.

Using Alma Erbium Laser technology: This method provides a gentler and more comfortable treatment experience. It precisely targets cells without damaging the surrounding tissue.

The above information answers the question why skin tags appear on the neck. If you notice skin tags on your neck, promptly visit a dermatology clinic for the most effective consultation and treatment. Wedo International Dermatology Clinic, with its modern technology system and leading dermatologists, is always ready to serve its customers with dedication and effort.
