Doctors explained, if you want to remove moles

Mole removal at home is unacceptable.

To all moles are different. Some believe these markings can be on the skin very pleasing and attractive, others believe that a birthmark can only spoil the appearance, and all the forces trying to get rid of such defects.

However, according to doctors, mole removal at home is unacceptable, because it can lead to tragic consequences.

To remove moles?

Moles are benign growths on the skin that can be very different: brown, black, light beige, protruding above the skin level or flat, hairy or smooth. Birthmark (especially large ones) can be congenital, but most moles appear in the course of life.

Many believe that these marks on the skin give it a special charm. No wonder in the old days fashionable ladies used artificial moles – flies to attract fans. At the same time, many tend to believe that moles only disfigure the appearance. In the Middle ages, these tumors could cause death at the stake because they were considered the “mark of the devil”. And today mystics believe that the mole can determine the fate, and removal of moles can be life-changing (not necessarily for the better).

Of course, can not be unified opinion, beautiful, birthmarks or not – it all depends on the size of birthmarks, their shape, location. A neat little moles can give the face a poignancy, a large shapeless birthmark their owners often attempt to remove, the skin became smooth, beautiful and smooth. Today it is quite possible, and even not too difficult. But you must understand that removing moles is not just a cosmetic procedure, so it can be carried out only under the supervision of a physician.

Safe and dangerous moles

It is known that, although birthmarks are benign tumors, they often transform into cancerous tumors. Melanoma – the tumor is usually small, but extremely dangerous due to the rapid and active formation of metastases. Early diagnosis is crucial to saving lives.

Of course, not every mole eventually turns into melanoma, but some types of birthmarks require particularly close monitoring and careful treatment. In particular, attention should be paid to moles, uneven (asymmetrical) shape, with fuzzy edges, uneven colour, more than 4 millimeters in diameter. And if the mole start to change, to grow, shrink, change color, bleed, become covered with scabs – I need to run to the doctor.

Contrary to popular belief, injuries, moles do not necessarily lead to their malignancy. However, if injured the mole, which has degenerated into a malignant tumor, it can lead to tragic consequences: the disease begins to spread instantly appear metastases. This applies not only to mechanical damage (scratches, injuries, unprofessional removal), but the effect on the moles ultraviolet radiation or chemicals, such as cauterization of moles of various corrosive liquids.

Unfortunately, the likelihood that a layman will be able to determine degenerated nevus to a melanoma, or not, is negligible. It to specialist, and not any doctor, but only oncodermatology. That is why serious cosmetic clinics before the mole removal is important to consult a doctor who will be able to determine whether you can remove this specific education. Technology for the removal of “dangerous” malignant tumors differs significantly from the usual removal of moles in the beauty clinics. In addition, “suspicious” moles definitely are sent for analysis, while in the ordinary birthmarks removal is often impossible.

Not all moles, even if they are potentially dangerous, over time transform into melanoma.
So there is no need to urgently get rid of all birthmarks, especially if the moles on your body quite a lot. Remove “dangerous” moles should be only on the recommendation of a physician and only in specialized clinic. At the same time, the doctor may advise to follow all “suspicious” moles that in case of their changes immediately take action. And, of course, necessary to keep these moles from the sun – the ultraviolet radiation, according to doctors, is one of the main causes of the threat of cancer.

Mole removal at home

If mole removal even in the clinics may not always be safe, what about home remedies? Oncologists often tell that to their come people, who once “burned out” home remedies mole, which they did not like. Of course, any biopsy of any tests in such a situation could not go and speeches. The disease continued to grow, and precious time for treatment has been irretrievably lost.

Of course, not always removing moles at home can have such unpleasant consequences. However, it is not worth the risk, and do something to do with birthmarks, not showing their pre specialist. Only after verifying that the spot on the skin is completely benign, you can remove it in a clinic or independently. Thus, if you really want to get rid of moles on their own, you must notify the doctor and consult over methods of destruction spot on the skin.

As a rule, independently of the mole removed the same as warts or other skin defects with the use of various caustic substances. The most popular home remedy is perhaps the juice of celandine. He repeatedly applied to the mole, and the mole fades or disappears. Often, such “burning out” moles causes severe irritation to the skin. Very often the irritation and inflammation appear if corrosive gets not only the mole but the skin around it. This applies not only to the juice of celandine, and other “home” remedies – garlic or onion juice, vinegar, alcohol.
