Instructions

• 1

  Understand what type of mole you have. Some moles are benign and others are malignant.

• 2

  Discuss your skin type and any allergies you might have with your dermatologist.

• 3

  Get a prescription from your dermatologist for a product that he recommends for mole removal.

• 4

  Do not be tempted to buy any products you see advertised. Stick with your prescription.

• 6

  Do not use anyone else's medicine on your skin. It can be dangerous.
