Is it possible to remove a mole using just home remedies? if so how? and will it leave a scar? if so is it possible or how can i remove it? thank you very much!!

No: The only way to remove a mole is with a procedure. The good news is it can usually be done under local anesthetic, and sometimes the scar is not very visible. Sometimes what looks like a mole can actually be a skin cancer, like a malignant melanoma. So if there is a change in it, see a doctor.
