I have a mole on my face and I have had it a long time, so I really just want to get rid of it. I went to the dermatologist and they said it was fine, so removing it surgically seems to be out of the question right now.|||Do NOT follow the advise to tie a string around the base of the mole to try and pull it off. That is the worse thing you can do and you will end up with a larger scar that will look worse than the mole.
Your dermatologist can remove the mole, but because it is not medically necessary, insurance won%26#039;t cover it. The cost to remove it depends on the size and location of the mole (i.e., moles to remove on or around the nose are much more difficult, than one that is on a flat surface like your forehead). It really should not be that expensive to do the procedure; approx. $350.
Depending on the type of mole, there is also the option to shave the mole off...another procedure that should ONLY be performed by a trained dermatologist.
Good Luck.
Your Friendly Dermatologist.|||The doctor just meant that it%26#039;s not medically necessary to have it removed. You know? Because it%26#039;s not cancerous or anything.
You can still have it surgically removed. It would be like a form of plastic surgery. Your insurance will probably not cover it but it shouldn%26#039;t be that expensive.
Unless the mole is very large and really makes you uncomfortable, rethink it. I have this crush on a professional athlete who has a pretty noticeable mole on his face and all the photographers airbrush it out! I love that mole!
It%26#039;s just one of the things that makes you who you are. :)|||surgery is best|||If the mole is big enough try to tie a string around it and pull as hard as you can do this every day till mole falls out.
