Warts aren't the same as a mole. Moles are a growth on the skin while warts are a virus imbedded in the skin.
Just go to the doctor. Trust me--you'll be happier and in less pain if you have a professional doing it for you.
If you do it yourself, you're going to bleed. You're going to need stitches AND something to numb the area. Plus you don't know if those moles are cancerous. Logic would say that they aren't, but you just don't know.
Pay the money and get it taken off at the doctor's. They have to CUT THE MOLE OUT!

Find a dermatologist in your area and make an appointment. Most moles are no problem but some can become cancerous. In either case a Dermatologist will help you the best. And you don't have to worry about possible doing harm to yourself.

Moles or nevus should always be remob\ved by a physician and sent to lab for testing. Many moles which look like they are no big deal turn out to be pre-cancerous, or already squamous cell cancer. Don't fool around with household products...or OTC wart removals products...see a real doctor who can DX this for you.

well my friend rebecca also hasthe same problem and there is no other way to cure this but to put some tipe of lotion on it some people cut theres off that is very painful and terrabilly discusting so take my advice and use jergens lotin you can find it either inCVSoryou cango to the mall I prefer CVS because if you go to the mall then your moles won't look so good and netiher will the other peoples faces when they see them.

Sounds like your talking about skin tabs. (Skin colored little pieces that stick out) They are normal and alot of people get them and don't do anything about them. I had 1 on the inside of my thigh and it was bothering me, so I had it removed by the Doctor with a little freezing. He just snipped it off.
I sure don't think there is any household remedies for this, and I don't think I'd want to try anything on my own, for infection reasons. Best to see your Doctor about them.

Listen girl...take my advice and go to the pharmacy or local store or even get proactive if you need to and put it on your face.You can also use make-up the same color as your skin and put on your face,that way you dont have to stay home or ask a doctor.If I were you i'd rather go with the make-up advice,"but just dont let anyone touch your face."
