Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and understood your concern.

It seems you are having a mole or melanocytic nevus. They are considered benign melanomas and nothing actively needs to be done for them. If the mole shows a sudden increase in size, differential pigmentation, bleeding, irregular borders, etc., then you may go for a skin biopsy.

If you want to get it removed for purely cosmetic reasons, then you may opt for shave excision under local anesthesia by a dermatologist, TCA (trichloroacetic acid) cautery, radiofrequency cautery, or laser treatment. All these are painless procedures. I suggest you do not go for any natural remedies otherwise you may develop big scars.

Hope this helps.

Thanks and regards.
