Flat skin moles, can i remove it with a sharp needle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flat moles: I would not recommend removing moles (flat or otherwise) on your own. Bleeding and infection may result. In addition, a dermatologist should evaluate and at times biopsy the mole or growths to make sure they are not cancerous. See your dermatologist.
