Not sure if it was fasting or keto or both (and I’ve been poor at staying consistently ketogenic), but I did notice a big change in the first year and now, after 3 years, I just plain don’t get skin tags. I can’t remember the last time I had one. WAY different from 2016/2017.

This is one of my favorite keto side effects, no new skin tags.

All mine have disappeared since I started Keto

Now that I think about it, mine are gone. I don’t know when they disappeared.

I do intermittent fasting (18:6) most days, but not extended fasts.

Skin tags are supposedly related to insulin levels, so as your insulin levels decrease, so do your skin tags. After seven years LC/keto, mine are basically gone. I used to go to the doctor every 6 months to get ones removed. Haven’t had to that in many years.
