Can I Remove a Mole at Home with Duct Tape?

asdfghjkl123
I read online that if you clean the mole area with soap and water then let it to dry then put a piece of duct tape on the mole and leave it on for 5-6 days without getting the tape wet it would peel off with the tape. Is this true? Will it leave a scar? #mole #remover #ducttape #easy #fast My mole does not have cancer
