What Actually Are Skin Tags?
Skin tags — medically known as acrochordons — are common benign (non-cancerous) skin growths. They’re small, soft, and often hang from the skin on a tiny stalk.
They usually develop where your skin rubs against itself or clothing, like the neck or underarms.
📌 Key facts:
• Not dangerous
• Can appear at any age, but more common after 40
• Often skin-colored or slightly darker
