Questions & Answers

Facial Mole removal and Home remedies

I have been to a dermatologist about my moles before, but I was wondering the best way to remove a facial mole. I have heard conflicting things on the Internet as to which home remedies are safe and which are not.

Anonymous Patient

Most home remedies for mole removal simply do not work. Those that might remove the mole are much more likely to cause infection or unsightly scarring. Worse than this, if the lesion removed turned out to be cancer instead of a mole or cancer occurring in a mole , the cells left behind could spread resulting in a worse prognosis.
So, I would like to second the advice given by my colleagues and say that if the mole bothers you enough to want it gone, then you should have it removed by a doctor. In the end, I thnk this will give you the best cosmetic outcome possible and make you the happiest .
