 Best Home Remedies to Remove Moles on Face or Body

 Best Home Remedies to Remove Moles on Face or Body: Moles, which are also known as melanocytic naevi in the medical community is usually a benign (non-cancerous) skin lesion that may occur anywhere on the human body. They are dark brown or black in color and may appear alone or in a small cluster. Their texture differs from person to person. For some, they are smooth, whereas for others they may be coarse to the touch. In some cases, they lie flat against the skin, whereas in other cases they may be raised. Some even have hair growing from inside them whereas others don’t!

There are several home remedies that you can try to get rid of the mole that is eating at your self-confidence. Following are some examples:

1. Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) is a strong natural acid that can help to remove moles by slowly burning them, causing it to ultimately scab and fall off. ACV is also known for its anti-bacterial properties; hence it also protects the area from secondary infections.
Before you decide to use this treatment, you need to make sure that you are not allergic to ACV. To determine that, take a bit of undiluted ACV and put it on an unaffected part of your skin. It should sting for a little bit, but it should be normal after a few seconds. If the sting is persistent, then you may be allergic to ACV and you need to pursue a different treatment.
If you can tolerate this treatment, then there are a couple of methods that you can use ACV to treat your mole:

• Dip a cotton ball in ACV and press it against the affected area. Hold it in place using gauze and medical tapes. Remove after an hour. Doing this once every day should get rid of your mole in about 10 days or sooner.
• To make this treatment even more effective, use an emery board to gently scrape the surface of the mole. Apply ACV till the area goes white and then let it dry naturally. This should allow you to burn off the mole even faster.

Take extra care to ensure that you never ingest undiluted Apple Cider Vinegar. For best results, use organic ACV that still has the “mother of vinegar” in it!

2.Baking soda and Castor oil

There is a lot of anecdotal evidence that suggests that baking soda and castor oil can be combined to create a slow, but the highly effective remedy for moles. This is because castor oil is purported to have discutient (the ability to disperse pathological growth) properties. This treatment also reduces the chances of scars in the aftermath.
Following is how you would go about applying this treatment:

• Take a teaspoon of baking soda and add about three or four drops of castor oil to it. Mix it properly to create a gummy texture.
• Apply it on your moles right before you go to bed.
• Protect the area using adhesive bandages or gauze and medical tapes.
• Take it off and wash the area after you wake up.

This should get rid of the moles in about a month.

3. Flaxseed oil, Ground Flaxseeds, and Honey

Flaxseed oil is effective against raised moles. It slowly loosens the mole from the edges, gradually allowing it to come off. Honey is anti-bacterial properties, which prevents the area from secondary infections and also has scar removal properties.
Following is how you apply the treatment:

• Wash the affected area with lukewarm water and pat it dry.
• Combine a teaspoon each of ground flaxseed powder, flaxseed oil, and honey to make a smooth paste.
• Apply it on the moles and protect the area with gauze and medical tapes if you need to.
• Leave it on for an hour, after which wash it off with lukewarm water.

Repeating this treatment three times during the course of the day may get rid of moles in a few weeks.

4. Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil seems to work pretty well for raised moles with a shallow root. There is scant scientific evidence that supports this treatment, but there is plenty anecdotal evidence that seems to suggest that it is indeed an effective remedy. It does have proven anti-bacterial properties, which will protect the area from secondary infections.
Just like ACV, people can be sensitive or allergic to tea tree oil as well. The best way to determine whether you are allergic or not would be to apply tea tree oil to an unaffected part of your skin, to check and see how your skin reacts. If you feel a minor sting that goes away after a few seconds, then this treatment is right for you. However, if you feel a persistent burning sensation, then you may be allergic to and should not pursue this treatment any further.
Following is how you would use tea tree oil to treat your moles:

• Dip a Q-tip in tea tree oil and gently brush it against your mole.
• Cover the area with an adhesive bandage for an hour.

Repeat these two steps twice every day for a month. One of the suggested times for applying this remedy is right before going to bed. You should not ingest tea tree oil under any circumstance.

5. Garlic

garlic contains enzymes that break down the anomalous cell structures that are manifested in the form of a mole. To apply this treatment, simply slice a piece of garlic clove, and apply the cut side on the mole. Hold the clove in place using medical tapes. Leave it overnight.
Repeating this garlic treatment every night before going to bed should get rid of the mole in a few weeks.
