Hi Stuti,

Thank you for your question!

Can moles on the face be removed at home?

While there are many home remedies circulating online (like using garlic, apple cider vinegar, or iodine), we strongly advise against trying to remove moles at home. Here's why:

  1. Risk of Infection: Using unverified methods can cause skin infections or scarring.

  2. Misdiagnosis: What looks like a simple mole may actually be something more serious (e.g., a skin tag, wart, or even early skin cancer like melanoma).

  3. Permanent Scars: Home removal can leave behind marks or worsen the skin texture.


What’s the safe way to remove facial moles?

The safest and most effective way is to consult a dermatologist or skin specialist, who may recommend:

  • Laser removal

  • Cryotherapy (freezing)

  • Surgical excision or shave removal

These are quick, outpatient procedures with minimal downtime and better cosmetic outcomes.

If your mole is changing in size, shape, or colour, it's important to get it checked immediately.
