Is it dangerous to peel off moles by bleeding them and then taking them off i tried this to some moles , and i am very worried i'm 16 years old ?

Yes: Definitely do not try to take off your own moles. They may become infected and then you have much more to deal with. In addition, you want them taken off properly so they may be biopsied to make sure they're not bad or malignant.
