When I was 14 years old my mom took me to a dermatologist and had a mole removed from under my arm. She thought it might be cancerous. So the dermatologist removed it somehow by "freezing" it off. They sent it to the lab and had test done. Came back fine. I am now 25 years old and the mole has not grown back. It did take a little while to heal but eventually there was not a scar or anything left from it.

Moles are generally darkish growths which can appear all around. They could get removed using surgery treatment, or through a number of store products or natural home remedies.
Surgery treatment is high-priced, costing from $100 to $400 yet it can easily leave scarring. Home made remedies usually are affordable and can easily remove ugly skin moles inside just a couple days with no scarring.
Home made remedies may inlcude onion, tea tree oil, or even fresh pineapple juice used for a small period of time.

I had one on my neck that I ripped off manually when I was 11, and it never came back. No scarring either. At 17, I developed a horrendous cherry angioma on the left side of my forehead, and I had that removed with an electric wart remover (done at home), and that left no scarring and wasn't painful.
