[YEA]  04/12/2007: Steve from Metairie, Louisiana: "I have had at least 10 moles removed by my dermatologist, and after they were burned off (they usually burn, or freeze them), It took about 2 weeks for the cuts to heal (depending on the depth of the cut). Then, once the skin was basically healed, a pink mark was left behind. After a while (usually a month or two), my color would return and blend in with the surrounding area. Some of the areas that my dermatologist cut left a hole in my skin, which has never filled in. So far, Iodine has removed moles from my skin, but never left any holes (depressions) in my skin."

[YEA]  04/11/2007: Steve from Metairie, Louisiana: "Iodine worked to remove my moles. Make sure to gently scratch (softly) and then apply the iodine. I applied the iodine at least 3X's a day."

[YEA]  04/05/2007: Darren from Walhalla, SC: "Iodine helped get rid of moles but left pink spots how do I make the pink spots heal faster or blend in with the skin?"

[YEA]  03/13/2007: Shane from Sunbury, Victoria, Australia: "Thank you everyone. Iodine worked brilliantly for removing my moles. The trick was to rub them with a pumice stone or scratch them with a needle before applying the iodine 2-3 times a day. Hey presto ! Mole gone in a week to 10 days. Once the moles turn hard you can stop applying the iodine. I also found apple cider vinegar worked as well, but must be careful not to over apply as it irritates the surrounding skin (only needed to apply this for 2-3 days to kill the mole. Thanks to this site for the information, I never thought it would be so easy."

[YEA]  02/26/2007: Diane from Chesapeake, VA: "I use tincture of iodine (everyday) on skin ulcers which refuse to heal. Sometimes I apply iodine 2 to 3 times a day. I never miss a day when treating squamous cell carcinoma. The area being treated by the tincture of iodine often becomes very sensitive or itchy...don't discontinue the iodine...keep applying iodine on the ulcer. The itchy skin will scab up...it's just the healing process. Scrape off the skin if it again develops a white flaky patch or a brown scab...then, apply more iodine. Use the iodine for at least one to two months until the skin ulcer has completely disappeared. Then, use Retin-A cream to complete the skin rejuvenation process. Use Raw Organic Palm Fruit Oil along with the iodine to promote deep healing and also use Raw Organic Palm Fruit Oil along with sun block to prevent future skin damage. The ulcer patches have developed on my hands and lower arms. One skin damaged area shows my skin separating on crease lines on top of my wrist. The day after I applied the tincture of iodine to the separating skin, the crease lines showed signs of healing, as blood circulation appeared in the area. The areas I treat are all about the size of a quarter, which is larger than the freckle-sized spot. I figure the underlying skin damage takes in a larger area and it may only show up on the skin as a small freckle-sized spot. Last, everyone will ask you why you are using iodine on your skin...it's orange...it's sooo old fashioned. Don't let the embarrassment of orangey skin stop your self-treatment...it beats having a doctor remove the cancer and leaving you with holes where the carcinoma or melanoma used to be. I use this treatment on all skin problems, to include possible melanoma. In addition to the topical treatment, I plan to add a daily dose of Lugol's Iodine in my drinking water. I want to treat all cancers and other health problems from within. I have red hair and white skin with lots of freckles, and I am very sun sensitive. I have been terribly burned year after year while growing up in California. I am now 56 years old, and the skin cancer is just starting to appear. That's why I feel it necessary to add the Lugol's Iodine daily to my drinking water."

[YEA]  01/18/2006: Brenda from DE: "Iodine is excellent for toenail fungus, ringworm, fever blisters, moles and skin tags, hangnails, etc. Just a few drops on a q-tip is all it takes. Use daily until the "boo-boo" is gone."

[YEA]  Teresa from Lowell, North Carolina: "I had a raised mole to come up on my face and several skin tags to appear under my arm. I was embarrassed by the mole on my face, but didn't have the money to have it removed. Using a q-tip, I rubbed iodine on both the mole and skin tags at night before going to bed. Within 3 to 7 days the skin tag dried and fell off while the mole went away. I have shared this information with my sister who has removed several as well."

09/30/2011: Moley from Anonymous: "In the past year I've had maybe 50 small flat brown moles show up on my body, on my stomach and under my breast are. What is causing this and how can I get rid of so many? My Dr saw them during my physical but didn't think anything fo them."

09/08/2011: Ruth from Uk: "I have lots of moles all over my body. They ruin my life and stop me from going swimming, wearing skirts, etc. My doctor won't remove them because they are benign. My moles are mostly flat or very slightly raised and are fairly small but are unsightly and numerous. I want them gone and topical solutions such as garlic didn't work. What can I take internally to fix this problem and get rid of them? I eat a high raw, low sugar diet already."

08/08/2011: Cheryl from Knoxville, Tennessee: "My daughter had a mole removed on the top of her knee by a dermatologist three years ago. It was about the size of a pencil eraser and slightly raised. The Dr.just scraped it off. What remains is a larger spot, reddish and about the size of a AA battery end. Since it's on the top of her knee and visible, friends ask all the time what it is. I was thinking about taking her to a plastic surgeon but hate to go to that expense just to avoid a scar and no guarantees it will work. Anyone have any thought on whether ACV would work on it? I'm assuming there still must be mole roots there and I should scrape and soak ACV on it. I'd love any feedback!"
