Which is better itworkspaste or molepaste ?

By Bettie on 22 May 2008

I've been to my doctor for some moles that are not cancerous. My doctor said since my insurance wouldn't cover it, it would cost about $450 to remove them. I've been on other forums and they are recommending itworkspaste or molepaste. I saw the before and after pics but would like to hear some real results from someone here. Has anyone tried either of these? If so, how were your results.

Well, I can't speak for molepaste because I haven't tried it. But I did try the itworkspaste. It really did work. I was skeptical to try anything but go to my doctor's office, but I saw other reviews online and decided to give it a try. The positive side to it is that it really did kill my mole and skin tags and they fell off in about 9-10 days. I only needed one application to 3 of them and two applications to one of them. I did all of them for around $69 and can't complain about the price too much since it did work. The downside is that I wish I got more of it. There is a little tiny tube they give you. They say it can remove up to 25 tiny moles and it would have if mine were little, but mine wern't. Mine were big. Next time I would have saved more and ordered two kits at once.

How big were your moles and skin tags that the tube of itworkspaste removed?
Marchele 28 Jun 2008
Hi - I'd say a little smaller than a pencil eraser - except the one that I used two applications, that one was a bit bigger than that. The skin tags were just little - hanging on my neck (yuck!). I only need a dot of paste to remove those.

Did it really zap it in 20 minutes?
Marchele 2 Jul 2008
Yep - you can feel it sort of stinging when you apply the paste. So you know it is working. After 20 minutes you can see how it did the job as the mole is like cauterized. It was easy.

Wow, this is wild! Did you ever try it on skin tags or age spots yet?
Marchele 5 Jul 2008
Actually,my hubby tried it a few weeks ago for some skin tags on his neck and it worked very well for those too.
Bettie 10 Jul 2008
I am going to check it out. I'll get back to you on how it works out for us. Thanks for the help!
Marchele 13 Jul 2008
Good luck - let us know how you make out :o)

Okay, I've tried the itworkspaste and I can't believe how well this really works. I only needed one application on 5 of them, but one stubborn and big one I applied it twice. They are all scabbed and just waiting to fall off. I can't wait to see then end results. I'll keep you all updated.

I tried the molepaste and I must say I thought at first it wouldn't work because the amount that you get is about a pea size. But don't let it fool you like it did me. I actually removed 11 skin tags and 1 mole and I had a tiny left. Make sure though that you only put it on the area you want gone and you don't go beyond the edges that you don't want. It has to be applied exactly to where you want to be removed. If you follow the directions like that, it's got to be hands down one of the most amazing products I've ever used.

Where can I buy the itworkspaste besides ebay? And does it leave any scars?
wallliee 20 Jun 2009
hey hows the treatment being going do you see any scarring?
Marchele 22 Jun 2009
You can go to itworkspaste.com to get it and they also have the emuscar product there for healing. I'm sure everyone is different - on skin tags, no scar left. On moles, a faint spot I can see but fading. Much better than the ugly mole!

Hi. I'm using the itworkspaste right now and I'm not too sure if my results are normal. I put it on one flat mole and that mole turned black. I wouldn't really call it a scab now its just black and somewhat scaly. It has also sunk in somewhat which I was not expecting. It this normal and will it eventually fall up and rise back up to normal?

What happened to it Shan Do? Gosh its so hard to find honest reports on the net, its all marketing, so irritating

@ Shan It's supposed to be black, it wont actually scab til 24 hours. Ive tried wart mole vanish which is basically the same thing but the itworks is cheaper on ebay at $62 shipped. As for scarring, removing skin lessons will usually always scar but its not that bad. The scarring is usually just a small white mark that can be covered by make up.

I agree, it is supposed to turn brownish black. That happened to me too. Ebay has over 1,000 positive reviews on it and that's what I usually go by since we don't know who is advertising or not on forums, it can be tricky!

Ok here's my story. like many of you, did a ton of research on itworkspaste. had a couple of non-cancerous moles ( 2 on my torso, two on my neck) that I wanted to get rid of. Bought the 2-pack for $124.90 (including shipping). Followed the directions, prepped the moles on my stomach (one about 3mm wide, the other about 5mm wide) by using the pin and emory board to scratch the surface. Quick applied the paste..it dries QUICKLY so be mindful of that. Applied the paste, and it stung! So I knew it was working. 20 mins later I washed them off, and they were already black. By 36 hrs or so, Id say they were rock hard. 13 days later, both scabs fell off. The smaller one left a pretty good crater, but the skin underneath looked good and light pink. The larger one still had a reddish-brown, scab looking tint to it, even though the mole came off in one clean piece. I was psyched. But today, about 72 hours later, the larger mole area looks about the same, but the small crater seems to have filled in somehow? Its a very light brown. Now I dont know if the skin underneath is now scabbing or if the mole grew back (but in 72 hours?) So, I'm not particularly pleased right now. So. With this being said..if you follow the directions, yes, in about 2 weeks they should fall off, but it remains to be seen what it leaves behind. OUT.

Be extremely careful when using this material. It is caustic and causes a chemical burn of the skin. Do not be fooled by it's "natural ingredients". This stuff causes scarring and I have treated several bad scars on the face. Do not use it on your face. Period. Especially if you have darker skin.If you want to have a mole removed, speak to your doctor first.

drsimo is paranoid and spreading false information. Used the stuff on 3 moles on my face and it worked great. It's safe and effective if you follow the directions.

I had a mole on my forhead that a surgeon removed. It left a huge scar. I then got another mole on my face that I had checked and it was not cancerous. I used the itworkspaste. NOTE- this stuff will work but you must be careful around the edges. Only cover the area you want removed and don't go outside the edges. Mine turned black by the next day, just as they said it would and then scabbed up right away and fell off 8 days later. You know its working when you get a little sting. Its not bad, but you do feel it. I don't think it was that bad. I am amazed that it really works like they said. Thanks for all of the reviews. I have been lurking these forums for a long time and just wanted to sign up to share my results. I give it thumbs up thus far and will keep y'all updated on what i think but so far im impressed.

Hi there, I am just a 15-yr-old student, I have some small moles on my face, they are quite disgusting. So far I have more than 20 bucks/mole to get rid of...I am wondering if there is any other ways to get rid of them, naturally or cheaper?   I found this product “NATURAL Wart, Mole, Skin tag Removal Remover “ on the internet, it seems very work, Are there any one tried it before?
 
http://shop.ebay.com/zeitmover/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686
 
The product costs 10.99US dollars only but I am a student and have no ebay account, how can I try this please?   There are lots of good feedbacks and rating and I would like to have a try.... Can anyone help please, really thanks!!!

This question is for pottzkey, I was wanting to know how you had the mole checked that wasn't cancerous, because to my understanding the only way to check them is to have them removed for biopsy.
