Skin Tags

when I was a teenager I used an antibiotic cream on my skin tags that caused them to die and fall off...can I still get that from my doctor? I have the skin tags on the back of my neck. Is there anything that I can take to keep these off my skin?

Thanks for ANY help.....

My sister had skin tags. She went to her doctor who simply snipped them off with scissors. Now my sister does it herself. She disinfects the skin and the scissors and goes snip snip.

I don't see how an antibiotic could get rid of skin tags. It must have been something else.
