Hey,

Ive tried finding information on whether certain moles can be dealt with in certain ways, ie cut out, shaved off, burnt off etc etc..
I have a raised brown mole a little smaller than an M&M just below my waist line that i want removed, but i really dont think i want it cut out. I want it removed purely for aesthetic reasons and Im pretty sure its not cancerous because ive had it since i can remember.

Its starting to really annoy me and its ugly as sin and i just want it gone!!

Anyone had similar removed?? How?.. Where?

thanks heaps!!

See your dermatologist. They will tell you what the best treatment is. I have had moles removed and they usually do it by freezing it with liquid nitrogen and eventually the mole falls off. However is a mole is possibly a cancerous lesion then a different treatment might be necessary and only your doctor is qualified to make that determination.

I've had a few moles removed. My dermatologist numbed my skin and sliced off the mole. It only took a few minutes. She just put a band-aid on it and it healed within a week. It's no big deal. The scar is minimal.

1)see your dermatologist or find a dermatologist

2)Make sure they don't just surface remove it

3)if it is raised it has a root and surface removal ie laser or surface cut(shaving) WILL MAKE IT COME BACK IN TIME

4)To permantely remove it you need to get it cut out FROM THE ROOT & yes this requires a stitch or two make sure you get stiches it is the only way to know it will never come back as the ROOT was removed & stiches also prevent scarring

5)does not hurt at all

6) takes 5 mins

Best to see your Doc as most moles need to be tested for skin cancer cells nowadays.

Depending on the size he/she can numb it, slice it off and stitch up the surrounding area. Definately not a DIY project!

Skin moles happen to be unpleasant growths which may manifest any place. They may be eliminated through surgery treatment, or even better through different products or home remedies.

Surgical procedure is expensive, being anywhere from $100-$450 yet it can easily bring about skin damage. Natural home remedies happen to be low priced and even will be able to eradicate ugly skin moles within just a couple days while not leaving scar issues.

Home made remedies include onion, tea tree oil, and even grapefruit seed extract used during a small period.

Sometimes they can be frozen and will fall off. Based on your description, it is probably best to have a punch biopsy done on it (not only will that remove it, but it can be tested). Go to your derm.

The only way is get it removed "cut-out" I have had them removed just for the way they look. I am glad I did.

it probably is harmless and moles are considered a beauty mark.
I think u should keep it and forget about it.
