A member asked:

Can nonsurgical mole removal treatments such as dermatend really work?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not well: These products are very unpredictable. Further, you do not know whether you're treating a benign mole or a melanoma. You will be best served from both a medical and cosmetic stand point by consulting with a dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon for mole removal.
