Re: How to get rid of moles?I'm not sure of any creams or anything, but if you don't like it or you feel uncomfortable, you should get surgery. Surgery sounds really bad, and like it going to take hours. It doesn't. My cousin had a big mole on his cheek, and had it removed. No scar, faint mark.

Re: How to get rid of moles?I went to see my GP today but she was being unhelpful... she had a QUICK glance at them and said they all looked fine except that one was slightly darker but that one has been there since forever(Original post by timothytom)
go see gp, explain its hurting your self esteem which i presume it is otherwise you wouldnt be here.
he/she will then explain the best process
I only have a few moles, they are like 2mm and I dont mind them. I have one near my hair line that I really want to get rid cuz it looks silly

Re: How to get rid of moles?It doesnt hurt at all, ive had it done recently with 3 moles
They numb the area- all you feel is very light tugging. Ignore the "surgery" on youtube- that isn't how it happens
You get stitches for 2 weeks, and bobs your uncle. Little scars that can easily be covered up with concealer.
Had to go privately because of cosmetic reasons. It was £600 with initial consultation, MRSA swaps, room on the day (very nice- private bathroom, TV with Sky, Wifi, unlimited use of phone, free sandwiches, unlimited tea coffee or juice or water obviously and free molton brown toiletries) the operation, getting the stitches removed and follow up appointment.
The operation took 25 minutes max- I was on the table for about 30 while they got prepped etc.
Obviously will depend if your parents will pay for it, but talk to them- who knows. Do they have private medical insurance? Will be covered under that.
