How can I get rid of a mole without my skin scarring?

You can go to a doctor and have it burnt off or froze off.  My mom doesn't have a scar and she had hers burnt off.  But that was a mole on her back.  A plastic surgeon can work wonders for all areas though!

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.

You won't get cancer if you tear a mole off. You can get cancer if the mole is unusual changing in shape or colour and had not hair follicle. If hair can grow from the mole well then it's not malignant. The only problem with tearing off moles is that they are very hard to stop bleeding, and that is why a doctor should do it by freezing it or removing it and stitching the skin. If they do remove it they usually take it to be tested to make sure it's not a form of cancer.

Other than seeing a doctor, there is no other way to get rid of a mole.

My best fried was diagnosed with melanoma.  She spent many years tanning when she was younger.  She had several moles removed about five or six years ago and has been fine since that time.  There have been many advances in the treatment of melanoma.  Take care.

If it's a big scab and you are worried about it scarring... Nesporin. Also every day, rub Vitamin E oil into it, and keep it out of the sun, if it's not in a place you can cover with sleeves or long pants, keep sunscreen on it twice a day! DON'T PICK AT IT!!!!

Hey AL\n\nHere are some remedies.\n\nCause \nWarts and moles are usually the result of a nutritional deficiency and they should be treated internally, as well as externally. \nPotassium deficiency. \n\n1.General Information for Warts and Moles: The warts, moles and skin blemishes are helped externally and are often cleared up by using the white milk from dandelions and/or from milkweed. Applying castor oil or garlic oil to the area several times a day and taping a piece of gauze soaked with this oil over the wart during the night will aid in clearing the condition. The use of a clove of garlic cut in half (or mashed or grated) and kept over the wart all night until it is gone has aided many. Black walnut tincture and the following combination tincture have been used with such success that a number of people swear by them. The combination tinctures consists of blue vervain, black cohosh, blue cohosh, skullcap and lobelia herbs in equal parts, using 90 proof or stronger alcohol as a base. \n\n2.More General Information for Warts and Moles: Use the mucusless diet and add plenty of raw carrots, kelp, dulse, or sea weed and onions to the diet. \n\n\n3.Garlic for Warts and Moles: Here is a very successful routine for removal of these unwanted growths called moles, or warts. Take a button of garlic, slice or cut in two, and placed the cup area over a wart of mole. Tape it on, and as it dries out put a fresh piece. Many users have reported good results. \n\n4.Potassium Deficiency for Warts and Moles: When cysts or tumors grow in places where they can be seen outside the body, often we react by having them cut out. This defeats healing by working on the effect instead of the cause. You can cut cysts out, tumors off, and burn warts off (which are also a potassium deficiency), or get rid of as many moles as you wish, but unless you go to the cause, they will grow back again, and you may end up with as many or more cysts, tumors, moles as before. Different signs of potassium deficiency will keep popping out on the body because the condition that needs correcting is on the inside. You have to go into the cause, Dr. Christopher always insisted, which is the way we have been eating.Potassium sources: There are several ways to receive your potassium. Dr. Bernard Jensen sells a potassium broth made from dehydrated vegetables. Dr. Bronner makes a similar, excellent product. You can also make your own potassium broth by simmering equal parts of red potatoes, celery, carrots, onions, and herbs to taste. Raw vegetable and fruit juices also flood the system with potassium. \n\nBest of health to you

I would consult a dermatologist or two.\nIt would think it would be dependent not only the circumference of the mole, but the depth of it as well that would need to be removed.\n\nAsk an experience doctor of dermatology.

I've found that using a cocoa butter lotion has worked weel in lightening my scars. There is also a lightening product called Nadolina which has worked well from the scars on my face. Raised scars generally don't fade, simply shrink with time. You could also try a body dremabrasion. I use micro dremabrasion for my face and this is probably one of the more effective ways to removes scaring. It has helped with my face and other scars on my body.

I've had a couple of moles removed for testing because of a family history of skin cancer.  None of them were lasered. They were cut completely out down to the root--the doctor made a kind of cone-shaped incision and then put in lots of tiny invisible stitches. (Local anesthesia.)  The scar is red for a few months and then fades to almost nothing--you can see the scar in just the right light and angle but other than that I don't even need make-up to cover it.\nI had another one that had to be cauterized but it wasn't on my face--that made an ugly scar and 15 years later it's still white and puckered and shiny although not as prominent.\nDefinitely ask your surgeon about different options for removing the mole and what kinds of scars they will leave. It depends on your skin type too--my skin tends to scar easily and make those lumpy "keloid" scars so I have to be very careful about surgery and injury.

Get a cream with hydroquinone or kojic acid -it will lighten them. Laser can get rid of them altogether.

i know they are expensive but go to a dermatoligist.  right now there are a lot of problems with infections after all kinds of procedures.  Going to a clinic you run a higher risk of infection.  se a real doctor also so they can make sure nothing else is going on with the mole-ie skin cancer

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

Some time ago I had one of these moles removed.  The method of removal was similar to that used in Wart removal using cotton buds and liquid nitrogen to freeze it off.  I know of a wart product called Wartner which may be of use.  I warn you though, it hurts and really should be done by a doctor!

Google the term "colloidal silver". U can make it at home and it will all but eliminate the scaring. But do it now-ASAP-its OK to get it wet and let it air dry.

Don't want to worry you but moles can't always be removed, as they can cause cancer (before you ask I'm a nurse)I've had a tiny one for about 25 years; being stupid I tried to cut it out myself. I've been stuck with what looks like a clump of blood blisters ever since.

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