Can i get rid of skin tags on my neck with a disposable cauterizing pen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes , but: In general self treatment of skin lesion is not good idea , unknowingly , you ablate incompletely a squamous cell cancer or a melanoma then consequences will be grave , you check with your doctor first . A good practice any lesion removed must be tested ( pathology )
