Problem Mole
March 10th, 2007
Well, I'm 17 and had this small brown mole on my face(an inch or 2 below my eye) sice I was very young. I don't think it's dangerous and I've never been teased about it but I have always been self-concious about it and would like to get it removed.

How could I get it removed?

How much would it cost? Would my parents have to know first?

Thanx.

actually there are a number of way, cutting it out is probably the most liekly scenario and the face is one of the best areas of healing too.

A dermotoligist or someone related will do it, often just in their own room. Costs about 150$ and some places free if you have medicare.
