SKIN TAG ? EXCESS SKIN ON MY EARS? I DONT KNOW

I have an excess skin on my ears (its like an antenna if you know what i mean). I want to have it cut out by surgery but my mother doesnt approve for some people here in the phil believes that it brings good luck.. and now im taking up nursing and i would have to tie up my hair in a week or two. i just hope my classmates would not bully me or something jst like other people do to me. i need some encouragement to boost my self esteem! or tell me how much would it cost to have it surgically removed??

im 17 years old. I have lived with my skin tag for so many years. yes. i am planning to have it removed. the doctor said it is a nonsurgical process.. they would just put something on it,, it would blackened and fall off on its own in just two weeks.. I cant afford that 4 thousand pesos here in the phil. Im only a student. And i cant tell my mother about it. So i would just sell my cellphone to somebody and use the money for the removal..wish me luck=(

Hi my son who now is 11 months old has 2 of them one is attached to his ear which looks like and antenna and the other is a skin tag on his cheek, they are very common, ive never heard it brings good luck though he is having his removed in august by plastic surgery and it takes 10 minutes to do both as they are very noticeable and apparently he will have a tiny scare I have posted pictures as i was really worried at one point as they are linked to lots of other things but he seems fine and they are issolated which means its unlikely that they are linked.  If i was you I would get it removed what ever the cost you will feel so much better about yourself, im sorry i cant tell you how much it will cost as my son is getting it done on the NHS let me know what you think also you could see pics of my sons tags, cheer up.
