Am I wrong for using apple cider vinegar to try to remove my mole as Dr's refused to because it would leave a scar? (Photo)

Question

Before I touched my mole and during using the vinegar

Elliot M. Heller, MD · Answer

The best thing to do about this is to see a Dermatologist who can remove it nicely and leave you with a positive happy outcome. You can also see a plastic surgeon for this. This mole should be tested when and if removed just to be safe. Most Dermatologists test every mole they remove. Good Luck

Shobhan Manoharan, MBBS, FACD · Answer

This mole needs to be examined carefully by a specialist and if you truly would like removal, see a dermatologic or plastic surgeon so that it is done with the best possible scar.  Apple cider vinegar may cause a bad reaction, and leave you with a terrible uncontrolled scar in a sensitive area.  You are young and beautiful, please stop this immediately and see a specialist.
