I actually discovered this site by looking for a natural method for mole removel. When I read the articles here about ACV I had to give it a try. I had one mole on my leg that had changed it's texture so that it was sort of hard now. It had changed color to tan and brown, not a good sign.
Some lady here said instead of scratching the mole daily she used something used like a nail file to gently scruff it up and then applied the ACV. I did likewise figuring it would scuff more surface area and probably speed up the process. After 5 days of just applying ACV daily and scrubbing it gently every other day, the first two came off today. They were about 3mm and 8mm in size. They turned dark after a couple of days, scabbed over and came off in the bath tonight! Great site, thanks all!

Some background. This mole appeared about 5 years ago on my hairline at the temple. I tried esiac tea grounds on it as I had read that worked, but it might have only arrested it's expansion. It had a very dark brown color almost black, was irregular, in the 3/8 inch to half inch size and like most moles scared a person in all the scare tactics the medical community publish.

I have had allot of moles that would come and go to fade in time. This one though would go through cycles of raising I believe from allergies and then flatten. Because of allergies I have what my Gramma called "cradle cap" which is large desposits of skin sometimes in. One was right by this mole on top and I scratched it drawing blood on the day I was going to try the apple cider vinegar. Concerned, I believe God whispered that, "It will only make it work better by getting to the mole".

I used the protocols of a lady on the site. Not liking the idea of scratching a mole with a pin, I remembered I had had an electric pumice stone. I tend to be a bit to rambuncious in over doing and while I felt no pain I apparently sanded off enough mole to cause 2 pin prick size blood drops to form.

I placed a ring around the mole of vaseline to stop skin burning as directed.

With that I put on a pea sized cotton ball soaked with apple cider vinegar (Heinz) and covered it witha a bandaide. It was not what I would term burning, but I could fee the vinegar working. Next morning upon inspection the mole was black already. I was glad to read the feedback as seeing a black mole would not have comforted me not knowing.

I put on acv twice a day and repeated the same cotton ball at night.

On day 2 and 3, I noticed a slight tenderness or soreness in touching the mole with the Qtip. The mole by now was flat, crazed and shrinking in size of area covered.

On day 4 I decided to stop the vaseline as I didn't know if that was stopping the acv from getting to the outer edge of the mole as "tan colored" halo seemed to be appearing as the mole shrank. I think I remember this on top before in a darker pigment, but now it was all around the mole as it shrank.

Day 5, the mole started to flake on the outer edges with more shrinking with alternate itching when I put on the acv, tingling with "burning" and day 6, it was flaking a bit more and feeling like a scab. My intention was to keep using acv until it all fell off.

Day 7, in washing my face, a big chunk came out of the middle, leaving the tan pigment surrounding and a more red skin in the center with 2 small black scabs on top and bottom. I repeated the acv and it tingles and bites.

I did notice it seems some build up of skin by and under the mole.

Day 8, most of the remaining mole has flaked off. There is still a tan pigment darker than the surrounding skin, but the interior is white. I believe the mole is gone.

Day 9, I was motivated to keep with the acv as that tan shadow was upsetting me.

Day 10, the area blackened again and scabbed up. Puss would form under the scab. Tenderness started again.

Day 11, the same soreness, puss some bleeding as the center was open.

Day 12, it appeared even the outer pigment was now "fried", so I stopped using acv and switched to covering it up with coconut oil with beta carotene like they use for popcorn in the theaters.

Day 13, area was healed with the scab drying up.

Day 14 the scab was smaller and flaking in outer pieces.

Day 15, scab was shrunken and flat.

Day 16, scab flaked out with pink skin under it. There is still a shadow tan pigment in the outer skin, but I will leave it as I am thinking the pigment is still in the tissue, but the mole is gone. I would term it healed.

I did not have pink skin nor excessive burning as many had. Perhaps my years in the outdoors had my skin less sensitive. I would though deem this as something which works and much more beneficial than doctors freezing tissue scarring it.

It is an absolutely amazing thing that 16 bandaides, that many pea sized cottonballs and around 36 drops of apple cider vinegar. That is something which has me still shaking my head in disbelief as this sits on a store shelf, costs a few dollars and it worked on a very difficult mole. I will give all glory to God and thank the people who made me aware of this.

One final note. I have tried for a short time some remedies which have not worked in other things. I would like people to remember that some people are allergic to some things even the cures. I have a personal problem with sea salt which so many people swear by as well as things like vitamin C, so that rules out certain things here.

I do plan on utilizing this mole removal method on some other moles in trying the iodine too. God bless you and God bless this site, because it is wonderful to find a food product which does not cost 90 bucks like a doctor's visit. Ted should be commended for linking moles to fungus in the melanin. It is brilliant as the molecular papers I have read on people using maple syrup and baking soda a cure for cancer as the cancer is so greedy it gobbles the sugar and the base baking soda attaches and disrupts the cancer cells being acid, like minature bombs going off. From what I read it was 2 tablespoons baking soda to 1 tablespoon maple syrup heated on the stove to combine them, taken several times a day. That I hope I never have to use, but the mole removal I believe worked on a very stubborn mole.

I am a 14 year old living in Marietta, Ga. and I must say I think I am glad I stumbled upon this site. After reading various positive testimonials and few negative ones, I decided to try apple cider vinegar on a mole I WAS NOT BORN WITH!!! I think that is important to your success because moles you were born with have deeper roots so I would leave birth moles to the pros( = Although the mole is not gone I can see it start to change. It used to be so round on my nose it was shiny. Now it's drying up no bandaid just a q tip and I apply the stuff like ointment. I am just praying that it works and does not leave a damaged mole on my face I'll keep you updated.

I was searching this sight on how to get rid of moles. I had a pink,' pea sized mole on my face. I was very self concious of it and didn't have the money to pay a dermatologist to remove it. I came across the apple cider vinegar remedy so I decided to try it. I soaked a cotton ball in ACV and put it on the mole with a bandaid each night at bed time. The mole started to turn black like a scab and by the 7th day (Christmas)it completely fell off. Of course I have a pink scar in its place but that will fade in time. I am putting vitamin E oil on it now. I am very happy with the results. Thank you!!!!

I had a raised mole and one on my tummy that just did not look healthy. I have not been a big fan of doctors,(sorry all you doctors out there you are good to have around if one needs) but did not feel I needed one for this and what I have heard did not sound to appealing. Thought it got to be a better way. And then a came across this website just down my ally. So I read about the ACV could remove moles so I tried it. Took a little bit of cotton soaked it ACV and put a band aid over the moles. Did this twice a day, and within a week I would say it dried up turned black and fell off under was new pink skin. AMAZING! What else can you say!!

Apple cider vinegar cured my diarrhea caused by milk and other foods. I switched to Lactose Free Milk while taking ACV and eventually the diarrhea was gone. I continued to take ACV 3x/day (2 tsp in 8 oz of water before each meal) for 2 months when I decided to see if drinking regular skim milk (as I used to) would cause the diarrhea again. To my surprise, I no longer get diarrhea to any foods, not even to milk. So thank you God for ACV. Another good effect I had as a result of taking ACV is the disappearance of a couple of moles.

(Apple Cider Vinegar & Garlic, Alternating)' I'm new to this whole home remedy thing and was overjoyed when I immediately got results. I'm 13 years old with fair skin and am suffering from a small mole on my face. My family doesnt have all the money in the world and when the dermetologist said I would have to have plastic surgery to get it removed (and the price was a good $500-$600 bucks) I thought my mole would be with me forver. I've been on the Apple Cider Vinegar/Garlic (I alternate) for only a day but immediately I've noticed a difference. For one, the color (light brown) of the mole has nearly disappeared and the vinegar seems to be eating away at it. I was so exciting, if that happens in only a day what'll happen in a week? <3 I feel like theres finally hope to get this awful thing off my face. But if you're going to try this remedy be sure not to get it on any skin surrounding it or it will be red and swell. Other than that this has worked great! Thanks so much and for all you reading this. goodluck!

hi, I just bought some 'double strength 8 % acidity' ACV ( organic, with the mother) Is the double strength ok to drink? Do you only use half the amount you usually would? Do you add double the baking soda or double the water? Also, would all unpasturized organic acv have the mother, or should you look for the ones that say 'contains the mother'? would it be ok to use non organic acv as general toner on face and body? as I can't afford to do this with the organic stuff. Also : feedback- mole cure I used 'normal strength' acv for about 4 days on a mole, the mole turned into a scab and I forcably (gently) peeled it off The mole is gone, but (a small) scab formed where it was-I only did it less than a week ago, It is healing well, but looks like it may scar alittle, would letting the mole fall of by itself mabey stop it from scarring, or if you didnt peel it off would it re-attatch itself?

p.s. I got a bit of a rash from the band aid- switched to medical tape ( on a role) which is much better for my sensitive skin-I also stuck it to the back of my hand first-to absorb some of the glue. This is my favorite site online thanx -sorry for rambling on & on

I have very fair skin and have been plagued with moles most of my life. I have them all over my face and the rest of my body. The cost for getting them surgically removed is ridiculous and I decided to search the internet for 'home cures. I tried ACV on a mole on my side and after about 4 days, it scabbed over and fell off. The only bad thing is that the ACV dripped off of the cotton ball and onto healthy skin, causing a reaction. I've started using the small, round band-aids and they are easier for spot treatment. All that is left of the mole on my side is a pink circle that will probably go away soon. I'm treating 5 more now. The 2 on my chest fell off after 3 days and I'm now trying one on my face (yikes!). I can't wait for them all to heal! Thanks!

My mom told me about it, I tried it on warts and skin tags, put it on a piece of cotton ball and soak it with ACV and put a band aid on it over night, refresh it in the morning and it will turn it dark. Give it a couple of days and it will disapear. Believe it or not.

I tried this remedy and it really worked. I soaked some cotton in it and placed it on my mole fixed with a band-aid. I changed the cotton twice a day and in three days the mole simply peeled off like a scab. I was very surprised that it work, because I've tried several other remedies and non have worked for me but this one. I am very pleased with the results and am confident that it will work for you to. Give it a shot.

I had a good size mole in the middle of my back, I would soak a piece of gauze in the ACV and put it directly on the mole, would cover it up with duct tape. Took about 2 weeks and the wart is gone, turned green and I peeled it off.
