If your mole is normal in appearance, removal should be strictly a cosmetic concern and can be performed with non surgical methods. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Moles that are particular or morphologically different than others on your skin should be evaluated for a biopsy. Many of these moles are benign, but it is best to be safe. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

There are at-home options for mole removal, but plastic surgeons usually recommend that you opt for proven methods of surgical or nonsurgical mole removal such as excision, punch removal, hyfrecation, and laser. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Mole reduction is an appropriate treatment for cosmetic moles that are raised. Hyfrecation and laser work well for this approach. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
