Hereditary : These skin tags, or acrochordon, may run in families. In the obese person, they may be worse where skin ribs against skin, & in high moisture areas like around the armpit, under the breasts, neck & groin. They are also worse in diabetics & pregnant women. So if you are diabetic, obese or both, losing weight will help.
