Is Mole Removal Safe by an Esthetician Using the Superfrecator Machine?

March 1, 2012
Asked By:ijennzi

She offered to do it for me with a machine called Superfrecator..My friend had it done and her freckles and moles came off. There is a flesh burning smell. The freckle or mole falls off after a couple of weeks and then the skin is clear.
