Should you cut off a mole at home?

NO: You do not know what type of 'mole' it is and you may not get it all/scar so see your dermatologist...You get what you pay for.

Not a good idea: There is a reason why physicians study so much to remove moles. Not sure what do you do but i would recommend to see a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon before doing something you should not be doing.
