Skin tags are just small skin flaps that are harmless. See a dermatologist for treatment. Typically the dermatologist will "shave off" the skin tag. Painless and only takes a few minutes with little or no after effects.

I was told a long time ago that a iron deficiency could make a person more prone to skin tags. While you could cut them off or use a topical solution, I would recommend eating more foods rich in iron or even consider taking some iron pills for a while and see if it helps.
