Hi there. i hear apple cider vinegar can remove skin tags on the face if applied and soaked for 30 minutes at a time. is it true and is it safe? im afraid to damage the skin on my face.

Try it?: I have not known this to be effective but doubt it would cause any harm to try it on one that is inconspicuous. But I would recommend skin tag removal in the office with freezing or clipping - it usually gives very good results and is fast.

Safe if used proprly: Apple Cider Vinegar is very acidic and must be used carefully. It can cause minor burns. Most DIY websites describe using it for skin tags like this: Apply vaseline to the normal skin surrounding the skin tag. Dip a small amount of cotton ball (just enough to cover the tag), apply to skin tag, cover with a bandage for 20 minutes, then remove and wash with soap and water. Repeat daily for 3 days
