How To Remove Facial Skin Tag Under The Eye Apart From Plastic Surgery?
Hi. I have a skin tag on my face just under my right-eye and would like advise on how to get rid of it. My GP has suggested Plastic Surgery to have it removed. Also he recommended an old wives tale about tying the tag with cotton and it will fall off later. What would you recommend?

Hi ,the skin tag can be removed also by a cautery after the tag is given local anesthesia by an experienced dermatologist.
