Auto Tagband Skin Tag Removal Kit, Fast Effective & Safe Remover Small/Medium Skintags (2mm-4mm) on Face Hard Reach Areas, Onehand Application Home Minutes, Includes Pen + 10 Bands

On the whole this was a great success for me. I largely opted for this one as it says it’s made in the UK. I had lots of skin tags of various vintage (ergo various sizes) on my neck, plus one on my upper thigh. I chose to order the small/medium Auto Tagband. It’s a compact little kit. The “pen” applicator appears to be well made and is easy to operate. The little blue band loading piece is quite delicate at the narrow end, so don’t go stabbing at the bands to pick them up - it will bend! There are full, clear instructions included. You are supposed to get a number of alcohol swabs to clean your skin before application, but these were missing from my kit. I didn’t bother complaining about this because I had isopropyl alcohol I could use on a cotton pad and just wanted to get going. For the larger tags on my neck and the one on my thigh, it worked like a dream and fairly quickly. The smaller tags took more time but eventually fell off. When it came to the teeny tiny tags however, the bands more often than not just slipped off really easily. Therefore it would be good if some slightly smaller bands were available. (I haven’t looked to see if there are any available yet). The stages of “ideal” skin tag removal I noticed were for the first few days-week I didn’t really notice anything. Then it would seem like the tag would get a little bigger. There would be a little pain if say, hair or clothing got caught (if this was problematic I covered the tag with a plaster). Pain would get worse then disappear and the tag would begin to gradually get harder and darker in colour. It would then eventually fall off, or be “encouraged” to fall off. (The pain I would describe as quite sharp and not constant - only if something came in to contact with the tag, or I turned my head (for the ones on my neck). Covering with a plaster until the pain stops is the best solution). After the tags fell off I applied a little Sudocrem or Savlon. There is usually a little redness and a slight bump but these eventually disappear. I haven’t experienced any scarring. Other than the missing swabs and need for smaller bands, I am so pleased I tried this. I have had to wear my hair down all the time for years and years, scared that other people would see my crop of skin tags. Now I can throw my hair up without a care. My mum was so impressed she asked me to use it on a tag she had on her neck, which was also successfully removed. Enlist help from another person to apply to hard to see/reach tags.

Whilst I know it tells you not to use it near the eyes, but I did! The skin tag was right at the 4mm maximum, and very visible. However I thought that as I wasn't going to be seeing anyone whilst in Coronavirus lockdown, it was a perfect opportunity! Very, very simple to use and painless at the time. After a couple of days, it became sore, but I think I may have rubbed it during the night. I would recommend putting a plaster over if possible, but obviously I couldn't! The tag seemed to grow as it became black, but on day 6 was distinctly smaller, then fell off that evening. The photo was taken at that point, so not even a scab... I bathed it with antiseptic liquid, when it was sore, to prevent infection. as I realised I was potentially creating a wound. Would I use it or recommend it? Yes! Yes! Yes! I'm in my 60s and have had this skin tag all my life, along with psoriasis which you can also see around my eye, and wish I had done this years ago. Just don't expect it to be completely painless, keep it clean and remember it isn't going to take that long.

It's easy to use and it works. But the bands will come off if tag is rubbed by skin or clothing so a plaster is needed which in its self can be tricky as plasters will come off if rubbed by skin or... But if you can keep the bands on it's all good. Now the bands are very small and even though I read that they are, I was still shocked at how small, so be careful when you open the container or handle them because it'd be very tricky to find them again if you dropped any. You only get ten bands so it can work out quite expensive.

I bought this as I had a small but annoying skin tab on my forehead (great place for one I know) I have others but this is the only one that really bothered me and was occasionally causing discomfort. The applicator works amazingly well, but when putting the bands on 2 snapped before I realized that there was a tiny molding tab on the tool to put them onto it and was cutting them enough to break them, but after I filed this down it worked great. Once the band was on I discovered any rubbing (wiping sweat, wearing a hat, etc..) knocked the band out of place or even pulled it off completely making me have to put on another one, and I still haven't found the ones I had on when I went to bed or most of the ones that fell off during the days. This being said, and after a lot of faffing around... after a few days I noticed the skin tab was dried up and half of the base of it was black and it was causing much more discomfort so figuring it was dead (and maybe not being in the best of moods with all the effort it was taking and bands I was running through) I took a small pair of flat wire cutters to it and it came off easily and with no pain or bleeding, then after another day or so you couldn't even tell it was there to begin with. So did it work.. well kind of and for the most part, sure I guess it did... but do I just wish I'd cut it off to begin with and worn a plaster for a while without any of the hassle.. well kind of yes.

I had researched locally if I could get them removed and the cost - I was resigned to that as I couldn't see how anything else would work. I wish I had taken more photos, but I'm too proud to show how awful my neck looked. One we had been able to remove by tieing some sewing cotton around it very tight - my husband did that for me, as I couldn't have seen to do it. That worked but took longer. I also couldn't see to attach these little plastic discs - I think you could do it yourself, but I'll say in my defense my eyesight is not as it was :) Anyway getting to the point - for me this worked - it's removed 3 very ugly, unsightly and large skin tags. It has removed 2 smaller ones which fell off by themselves. They varied in time, but 2 changed colour within 2 days - the largest one has taken 6 days to come away. When those that hadn't fallen off, I pulled at the plastic and it came away. I'm left with 2 teeny ones that won't fit in the smallest size. To be honest I was skeptical, but for the price it's definitely worth a try before committing to a skin clinic appt. I did have some soreness, some red skin - only to be expected - I have used an antiseptic gel after and during. Would recommend and happy... Skin tags be gone!

I thought I’d add a review of my experience, I found it really helpful seeing what others had experienced, as they were all different. I’ve had my skin tag for as long as I can remember, the reason I’m wanted it removed is more for cosmetic reasons, it’s just ugly. Mine is on my neck. I found the device really easy to use, however it took me a couple of attempts to get the band right to the base of the skin tag, but once I got it on, I could feel how tight and secure it felt. Within the first day I saw the skin tag drying out & each day it was getting smaller. First picture is day one) I put the band on on Tuesday & by Friday the base of my skin tag has gone really red and inflamed, I’m unsure why & if that was meant to happen, but I just left it alone. I woke up this morning (Monday) and it was really sore and kept catching, so I gave it a little twist and it has come away. I have been left with an inflamed red lump (see second picture), it’s quite sore and a bit crusty (sorry 😂). The lump isn’t as big as the skin tag was, but it’s very noticeable. I’m hoping after a while it will calm down and go away eventually. I definitely recommend this product, it was easy to use & as far as I can see it has done its job!

After seeing the reviews I was expecting big things for this item. However I have been left rather disappointed. For ease of use I have no issues what so ever and in principle it's a well thought out piece of kit. Insert the adapter into the pen / plunger slide the band up and remove the adapter and it's ready to use. I have numerous skin tags under my arms, on my shoulder and the top of my leg that I just wanted to get rid of. With ten micro bands I set about dealing with the biggest offenders and within a short time the largest ones all hand a band on them. Now for the gross bit, a couple of the skin tags kind of popped within a few minutes releasing a small amount of puss which was kind of satisfying. Then within three days two of the skin tags had started to turn black and another had begun to discolour. There is some discomfort but not much more than when the skin tags rub. So all good until this point, so why two stars? Within a couple of hours of fitting the band's the one on the top of my leg had come off, never to be seen again. By the following morning one on my shoulder and one on my side had come off and by day four I had lost another three from my armpit. Not exactly a huge success rate. I bought the smallest bands available as I wouldn't consider my skin tags that big but they still came off. So far the band's have been less than 50% successful.

I've had to buy both sizes of tag applicator for my skin tags but both work well if you select the correct size appropriate to the tag you need to get rid of. It isn't a quick fix. The process of putting the band onto the tag is simple and painless. You then have to wait (atleast 2 weeks in some cases). To begin with, there is no pain and you forget they are there. In time, the tag will go darker until it is black and hard. Once it starts to darken, you start to get a little bit of discomfort however a plaster does help you tokeep it stable & untouched. In the last couple of days, it does become more painful before dropping off. You are left with a red sore for a few days which needs to heal but it doesnt hurt at all at this stage. The photo's show the difference to one side of my neck in a month by tagging 3 at a time. I started with the larger ones (which get even bigger before they die off) and am now working on the smaller ons. My neck feels so much smoother already and no snagging on the seat belt. If you are willing to wait, then I recommend this product.

I purchased the micro for small to medium tags and for the first 3 days felt I should have purchased the larger version. Instructions are simple and clear enough but the problem was getting the tag into the loading pen. I tried for 10-15 minutes the first two days without success and was getting frustrated but on the third day it suddenly worked and the band was on the tag. Using one hand I pulled on the tag, elongating it so that I could get the band down and as close to the skin as possible. After about 3 days the tag had become a disgusting black as the blood flow has been cut off and I'm just waiting now for it to fall off by itself. Painless and I would recommend.

Very effective

So easy to use.

No complaints, quality as expected.

Takes it off without bleeding and pain. It takes arround 10 days to fall off, so be patience :)
