8 Natural Remedies that Remove Moles Safely! – Inner Strength Massage & Bodywork

Moles are common growths on the skin that are usually brown or black in color. They can appear anywhere on the skin, either alone or in groups. Most appear in early childhood, and they can grow or change in color. Moles occur when the cells in the skin grow in a cluster, instead of being spread throughout the skin. These cells, called melanocytes, make the pigment that gives skin its natural color.

While most moles are harmless, they can be a sign of melanoma. If a mole on your body has the following traits, it’s most likely nothing to worry about:

One color – often brown, but a mole can be tan, black, red, pink, blue, skin-toned or colorless
Round in shape
Flat or slightly raised
Looks the same from month to month

A mole or a new spot on the skin that may be a sign of melanoma will most likely have one of the ABCDE’s of melanoma, and should be seen by a health care professional immediately. Symptoms include:

Asymmetry – One half is unlike the other half
Border – An irregular, scalloped or poorly defined border
Color – Varied from one area to another, has shades of different colors
Diameter – Generally bigger than 6mm
Evolving – Looks different from the rest of is changing in size, shape or color

If you are concerned about melanoma, it’s best to visit a health care professional. If your moles are simply a source of insecurity, there are several natural ways to treat them.

Try one of the home remedies below to help lessen the color, size and appearance of your moles.

1. Apple Cider Vinegar

Applying raw, organic apple cider vinegar on your moles every day can help to remove them by scabbing over the mole and allowing it to fall off over time. Tap a cotton ball or paper towel soak with apple cider vinegar to your face and let it sit overnight. You might want to apply some coconut oil to the skin around the mole for protection.

The natural citrus acid in pineapple helps to dissolve moles, while the sea salt helps to shed the dried layer of skin to reveal smoother, clearer skin underneath.

Moles can be removed with the help of acids, such as the citric acid found in sour fruits like green apples, oranges and lemons. These fruit juices can be applied over the moles for 1-2 weeks.

4. Honey

Apply raw, organic honey over the mole regularly like a cream to see positive results without any harmful side effects.

5. Castor Oil and Baking Soda

Mix 1 teaspoon of baking soda with 1/2 teaspoon of castor oil to make a paste. Apply the mixture on the mole and leave it on overnight. There are several varieties to this method, with castor oil as a main ingredient.

6. Garlic

Apply a garlic paste on your moles or scarred skin and cover it with a bandage. Allow it to dry overnight and continue the process for five days.

7. Aloe Vera Gel

Aloe Vera won’t show immediate results on moles, but it will help to heal sensitive and delicate skin. Apply fresh Aloe Vera gel onto the mole and cover it, leaving it on overnight.

8. Flaxseed Oil

Create a paste using flaxseed oil and honey. Put the paste on the mole and leave it on for at least 30 minutes.
