Yes, but I would suggest that you have it removed by a plastic surgeon or at the very least by a dermatologist. I feel this way because this is your face we are talking about not somewhere that you wouldn't notice. Have you ever thought that if your mole is small that perhaps it's cute on you, I have a friend who has a small one and it wouldn't be the same if she had it removed. Some people consider moles as a sign of beauty. I don't mean the large ones with hair growing out of them. UGH! Best of luck, whatever your decision may be.

Yes it is possible, and painless, and you'd look better, cause mole makes a person looks stupid.

No, because I had a mole removed from my back and there\nwas no pain and did not leave a scar.

are the spots that wont tan on the back of you, sometimes you get spots from pressure and they dont tan. i wouldnt worry too much about the moles unless they start to grow bigger or change shape.

Sorry, old wives' tale, the only way to get rid of the scar would be plastic surgery.  For the meantime, try makeup LOL:)

Mine look like a little white marbles the size of a pinhead just under my lower eyelid.  (very different from a sty)  They can last for weeks or even months at a time.\n\nI get these from time to time.  They never go away on there own and eventually become painful when I apply makeup.  I get them just under my bottom eyelid.  I ususally take a pair of tweezers and gently squeeze them. I do not pull on my skin, just pinch the "marble" under the skin   It take me a few tries but they do come out.  If your extrememly careful you will not harm your skin. I have never had any bleeding or bruising afterwards.  You might consider cleaning your tweezers with alcohol before you use them.\n\nPS I think it has more to do with heredity than diet or cleaning your face.  These are not your normal pimple like bumps as you probably aleady know.\n\nI also get tiny tab moles on my neck and upper chest from time to time.

Let me get this straight ... you've had this growth on your face for four years and you think it might be cancer ... and you want reassurance from a bunch of strangers on Yahoo!Answers?\n\nAre you trying to win a Darwin Award?

Just put some bronzer on it.  I wouldn't risk the chance of going to a tanning salon because those things can give you skin cancer and when you tan your whole self, your feet will only be a bit tanned and the rest of you will be even more tanned than you were before.

Moles, known medically as nevi, are clusters of pigmented cells that often appear as small, dark brown spots on your torso, face, arms and legs. But moles can come in a range of colors and can develop virtually anywhere, including your scalp, armpits, under your nails, and between your fingers and toes.\n\nMost people have between 10 and 40 moles, although the number you have may change throughout life. New moles can appear into mid-adulthood, and because moles last about 50 years, some moles may disappear as you age.\n\nThe great majority of moles are harmless, but in rare cases, moles may become cancerous. Monitoring moles and other pigmented patches is an important step in the diagnosis of skin cancer, especially malignant melanoma. Although not all melanomas develop from pre-existing moles, many begin in or near a mole or other dark spot on the skin.\n\n\nEveryone has moles, sometimes 40 or more. Most people think of a mole as a dark brown spot, but moles have a wide range of appearance. \n\nAt one time, a mole in a certain spot on the cheek of a woman was considered fashionable. Some were even painted on. These were called "beauty marks." However, not all moles are beautiful. They can be raised from the skin and very noticeable, they may contain dark hairs, or they may be dangerous. \n\n\nNormal Mole \n\nMoles can appear anywhere on the skin, alone or in groups. They are usually brown in color and can be various sizes and shapes. The brown color is caused by melanocytes, special cells that produce the pigment melanin. \n\nMoles probably are determined before a person is born. Most appear during the first 20 years of a person's life, although some may not appear until later in life. Sun exposure increases the number of moles. \n\nEach mole has its own growth pattern. At first, moles are flat and tan, pink, brown or black in color, like a freckle. Over time, they usually enlarge and some develop hairs. As the years pass, moles usually change slowly, becoming more raised and lighter in color. Some will not change at all. Most moles will slowly disappear, seeming to fade away. Others will become raised so far from the skin that they may develop a small "stalk" and eventually fall off or are rubbed off. \n\nThis is the typical life cycle of the common mole. These changes occur slowly since the life cycle of the average mole is about 50 years. \n\nMoles may darken, with exposure to the sun. During the teen years, with birth control pills and pregnancy, moles often get darker and larger and new ones may appear. \n\nDifferent Types of Moles\nRecent studies have shown that certain types of moles have a higher-than-average risk of becoming cancerous. Some may develop into a form of skin cancer known as malignant melanoma. Sunburns may increase the risk of melanoma. People with many more moles than average (greater than 100) are also more at risk for melanoma. \n\nMoles are present at birth in about 1 in 100 people. They are called congenital nevi. These moles may be more likely to develop a melanoma than moles which appear after birth. When a congenital nevus is more than eight inches across, it poses the greater risk for developing melanoma. \n\nMoles known as dysplastic nevi or atypical moles are larger than average (usually larger than a pencil eraser) and irregular in shape. They tend to have uneven color with dark brown centers and lighter, sometimes reddish, uneven borders or black dots at edge. These moles often run in families. \n\nPersons with dysplastic nevi may have a greater-than-average chance of developing malignant melanoma. These people should be seen regularly by a dermatologist to check for any changes that might indicate skin cancer. They should also learn to do regular self-examinations, looking for changes in the color, size or shape of their moles or the appearance of new moles. They should also shield their moles from sun exposure using sunscreen and/or clothing. \n\nRecognizing the ea

I have a little of it too. I have no idea why it's there, but to get rid of it for good, the best way would be to get laser hair removal. It might be a little expensive, but hey, it'll keep guys from walking away!

If the borders are well defined and the colour is solid and uniform then it is probably just a regular mole.  If you're unsure, you should always ask a professional opinion.

You can buy mole traps at a hardware store.\n\nJust kidding...you can cut them off but they may very well grow back....it they are bugging you enough, bite the bullet and go to the doctor.  BTW- it is good to get moles checked out once in a while by a doc anyhow.

Go to Walgreens and get some Maderma or Scar Away.

I've had a few moles removed. I had two sliced off and that was quite easy and didn't leave much of a scar - just a white spot. The other two I had cut out and that was less easy but still nothing major. My Mum had a melanoma removed. She has a big hole in her leg but fortunately it hadn't spread. Get any moles you're vaguely worried about off and then you won't have to worry about them developing into something nasty later.

My husband had a black mole on his face, about 3mm in \ncircumference and about 1mm thick.  The dermatologist\ncharged $250 and got rid of five or six of his other spots.  Local anesthetics and stitches on the mole was required. Plus, the check up a month later was free.\n\nIf your mole is unusally wide and thick, with uneven roughness, check with a licensed doctor to make sure it's not symptoms of a serious skin disease.  If you go to\none of those shady places that operate without a medical\nlicense (which exists in major US cities), the cost will be considerably less but they sure\nwould not have malpractice insurance...

You could try Vitamin E oil... Whats more important than trying to make it look better, is to look at it as a reminder of how lucky you are to be able to worry about something as trivial (although it doesnt seem trivial) as a scar:-) Good luck!
