How Can I Remove Moles Naturally Without Surgery?

Question

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 a natural Wart, Mole, Skin tag Remover on the internet called Masele AHA spot treatment. it seems very work, Are there any one tried it before?

Any cream that would be able to remove a mole would need to contain a strong acid which could cause scarring that would look much worse than a mole. You should not try to remove your moles yourself. If you do not like your moles, see a board certified dermatologist for assessment. Avoid the sun which can cause more moles to develop.

All spots on the skin are not moles and it is advisable to have a full body skin exam to evaluate for skin cancer and other skin conditions by a board certified dermatologist. Based on this examination, you can be directed towards your best treatment options for removal of particular skin lesions either by the dermatologist or a plastic surgeon.

Though it seems tempting to buy natural mole removal creams' it is not the way to go. Most will do nothing, some may cause scarring, and results will not be satisfying. One great way to remove harmless moles is with the ellman radiofrequency surgery. It has been published as scarless mole removal, though no surgical removal of a mole is truly scarless.

Moles, or nevi, are nests of melanocyte cells in your epidermis and dermis.  They cannot be removed with creams, or lotions.  Removal of moles with laser often risks incomplete removal, and skin changes that could prevent you from noticing a change in the mole later.  Changes in moles are one of the few signs we have that cells in the mole are becoming cancerous, that is developing into melanoma.  Moles shouild be removed surgically, and sent to a dermatopathologist for evaluation to make sure they were completely benign.  If the scar would be worse than the mole itself, then it should not be removed at all.

	Freckles can look like moles but are more superficial.  These can be improved with sun protection, bleaching creams and laser procedures.  See a board certified dermatologist  with expertise in both medical and cosmetic dermatology to assess your brown spots and see what, if anything, can be done about them.

	Hope that helps.
