A co-worker of mine was diagnosed last week with melanoma. Three on her back and one on her face. I don’t know the details as to how long its been since she’s seen a dermatologist but I’ve never heard of being diagnosed with four at the same time. Does that mean that one of them has spread which caused the formation of the others?

Assuming that skin cancer is not a concern, please factor the following points into your recommendation:
1) Out of pocket costs, since cosmetic procedures are not covered by insurance;
2) The person contemplating the mole removal is a heterosexual male who wishes to have an appearance that is appealing to females;
3) The risk of infections from such a procedure;
4) The risk that scars that look worse than the moles might form as a result of the procedure;
5) A relatively low threshold of pain;
6) The chances of finding a really good dermatologist who really knows how to perform this procedure well;
7) The length of time required for the skin to heal after the procedure;
The moles in question are all smaller in circumference than a pencil eraser, are raised up less than the thickness of two quarters, are not dark in color, and are present on the arms, legs, and face.

I have a few moles on my face that I would like to remove, but I’m not interested in going to a dermatologist. Is there a home remedy that would remove them for good?

I was wondering what you would recommend to remove Skin Moles or Skin tags, going to a dermatologist and having them remove them or trying a natural remedy. If you have used a natural remedy please let me know how it went.
