Remove Moles At Home by the Natural Treatment

By Aaron Lilly

Mole can make you look beautiful if you have it as a spot on your face which makes you different from the others, but when they are in a bunch they make you very different from the rest and this makes you to cover them with make up.

Moles are very common and can appear anywhere on the body. Moles are skin cells overgrowth; cells appear as cluster rather than spreading over the skin. Moles can be caused by age, skin exposure to sun, hormonal disorders and in some cases can be hereditary as well.

Moles can appear at birth or develop with time and they can vary in size, shape, color and can appear alone or grouped. Moles can be skin colored or brown and range to black in color. Majority of moles are harmless skin lesions and are not cancerous, but if moles are painful and itchy they may have developed into melanoma or look suspicious, these could be cancerous and immediate action has to be taken to remove them.

When skin is exposed to sun or by genitival variation moles can appear. The pigment generating melanocytes present in cells of the skin should be evenly spread over the body, if these are produced in excess they will lead to moles. The cause for skin cancer is when these moles formed by excess melanocytes get larger in size or leak. Then moles are dangerous to be ignored.

Removal of moles can be done in three different surgical treatments. A dermatologist would suggest the treatment depending on the size, color and shape of the mole you have, they are best to determine the moles suspicious for cancer. The surgical treatments for mole removal are stitching the skin, excision of moles by burning the moles, the last is Laser treatment where laser beam is passed through the skin and the moles are removed from the root.

Being under the knife of the dermatologist has become very common recently. The charge for mole removal is approximately $125 per visit to the dermatologist. Usually when you are undergoing mole removal surgery the skin around the mole is also removed to stay away from melanoma. These surgeries leave behind the stitches or burns, which takes months for curing. - 15634
