Using Liquid Nitrogen to Remove Moles

Using liquid nitrogen to remove moles is an effective treatment and is most often used by dermatologists. However, you can purchase liquid nitrogen to remove moles at home from most drug stores. This can save you the hassle of attending at the dermatologist's office, along with the related expense.

When you use liquid nitrogen to remove moles, there are a few things that you should know.

1. When you apply the liquid nitrogen to a mole, a small blister will form over the mole and you might feel a burning sensation. This is completely normal, although it may be somewhat painful. Don't touch the blister or break it as it may cause an infection.
2. The skin surrounding the mole will die, but do not pick the dead skin off or remove it in any way. It will eventually dry up and fall off.
3. There is an applicator the comes with the nitrogen, always use this, and nothing else to apply it. Avoid touching it to any other parts of your skin or body or it will kill the skin.

Liquid nitrogen can be dangerous, even in small amounts. This is why it is very important to read all of the directions that come with the package thoroughly. This procedure works best on smaller moles, large ones may not be as effectively treated. Also, liquid nitrogen can leave a scar after the mole and surrounding skin dry up and fall off.

Natural mole removal is a more desirable process because it is not dangerous, there is no risk, it is inexpensive and it can be done at home. There are so many natural mole removal options, some of them work very well while others do not. If you prefer natural removal options, then you are not alone. Most people do not want to visit a doctor because it will cost them money as coverage is not always provided for cosmetic procedures such as these.
