[YEA]  07/14/2008: Sara from Phoenix, AZ: "After a recent derm. appt.; where they offered to remove a two moles for a "mere" $150, I came home and found this website. Being the forever skeptic, I thought it sounded too good to be true; went ahead and gave it a try anyhow. And...it worked. Seriously, to my fellow disbelievers...it really works. I tried one in a inconspicuous place first by soaking a small piece of cotton in acv then covering with medical tape. After a couple of days it looked blistery and parts of it were dark, then it gradually hardened, scabbed and fell off, leaving a slightly pink circle. I've since taken another one off my chest in similar fashion and am proceeding to a couple on my neck. Give it a try. We could all save some cash right now."

[YEA]  07/08/2008: John from Athens, GA: "well I had about 5 moles that i have had for years one being bigger than a pencil earaser and i put acv on a cottonball taped it over them about twice a day and its been 2 days and there starting to shrink and change color."

[YEA]  07/08/2008: Kelly from New Market, Tennessee: "Great results from ACV mole removal remedy!! I had a dark brown mole on my cheek near my jawbone since birth. It used to be flat on my skin, and over the past few years had grown into a pea-sized proportion. I had an appointment with a dermatologist to have it removed when I came across this website. I began the apple cider vinegar thing on a Sunday night, and by the following Sunday afternoon the mole was gone!! Here's what I did:

I basically just followed the advice given by others on this site. I heated a needle over a flame, GENTLY stabbed the mole a couple times to 'tear' the skin, and liberally rubbed the acv on with a q-tip. I did this three or four times each day, but I never slept with it on my face for reasons noted below. The mole first became hard and dry, then cracked, then very itchy and tingley, then came right off as I was washing my face with regular cleanser as I normally do.

Just a note of warning to anyone who may want to try this: I read the accounts of others who said they rubbed vaseline on the skin surrounding the mole to prevent the acv from buring the skin, and I did not take that seriously enough!!! After the first time I applied the acv, I ended up with lots of tiny burns all over my cheek -it was kind of painful and REALLY ugly! It also cleared up with lots of treatment (I used a combo of glycerin, vitamin E oil, and aloe) in about a week, but it is for this reason I urge you NOT to apply with a cotton ball. That is what I did the first time, and also failed to apply enough vaseline. If even a little of the acv gets on the skin, it will burn, so use a q-tip!

Needless to say, I canceled my appointment with the dermo - my face is now mole-free and looks so much better!"

[YEA]  07/02/2008: Chris from Seattle, Washington: "Tried ACV on a mole, forearm area, that had been disturbed by some tattooing over it. It increased in size shortly afterwards leaving me bummed out and concerned as well. Used ACV on it for about the whole first day and a little on the second. Mole shrunk rather quickly leaving a black flat area. Applied lotion with aloe for a few days later and the scab came off exposing a small indentation where the underside of the mole had been. Luckily my tattoo was red so the discoloration somewhat matches it. Thanks for my newfound piece of mind."

[YEA]  06/17/2008: Jane from Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England: "After putting up with a very ugly mole on my cheek for 40 years of my life, I gave the apple cider vinegar thing a go I had a week booked of work so on the Friday night i heated up a sewing needle over a flame to make sure it was clean, i cleaned my ugly thing then stabbed it gently like the other people have suggested, then soaked at qtip in acv put it onto my ugly thing and held it it place with a plaster.taking off the plaster in the morning , i did this for two nights and somtimes during the day i just dabbed on a little.I also drank a table spoon of it three times a day, it tastes terrible so have a drink near by, but i thought why not treat my self from inside out as well,i did this for a week. on the 3rd day my mole had a blister over it then on the forth it started to go realy scabby and looked terrible i started to wish i had,nt done it by the fifth day it started to get itchy.I was very worried by this time because i was due back to work on the monday and i it looked horrible.I need not have worried because on the 6th day when i was bathing it, the whole scab came of leaving a small pink hole,I was so happy i cried, I have been using e45 cream since then and its almost clear on my cheek, people keep saying there is somthing different about you then they realise what is missing,
I hope this helps people who like me were so sick of well meaning people saying leave your moles alone there part of you,
they always dont have any.

Please just be careful to only put it on the mole not on your skin. and let the mole really dry out and i would advise you to go into hiding with lots of chocolate and a good book while you are doing it, Good look to you all and thank you so much for Apple cider vinegar, this wonderful site and the internet, please excuse me now as i get on with my life confident with a clear face oh and lovely long nails and shiney hair thats with drinking the acv, i am now taking it in tablet form as it tastes better. xxxx"

[YEA]  06/02/2008: WT from Spartanburg, SC: "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!"

[YEA]  04/13/2008: Jess from Wadsworth, USA: "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."

[YEA]  02/19/2008: Jordan from Marietta, Georgia: "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."

[NAY]  12/27/2007: Beth from Phx, AZ: "Apple Cider Vinegar (mole removal) I've been using apple cider vinegar to try and removal a mole and the skin surrounding it has become very red, raw and slightly swollen. I hate to stop the treatment as it's not complete, but I think the reaction is actually the ACV rather than the bandaid. Is there some way to avoid this? Also, Ted's Mole Theory link on the website does not connect. Can you refer me to where I can read this? Thanks. Please post this on the website."

[YEA]  12/27/2007: Vicki from Mcminnville, TN: "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!!!!"

[NAY]  12/08/2007: Ann from Winnipeg, Canada: "After reading the many testimonies of how the application of ACV on moles removes them I decided to try it. I followed the directions as follows. Before going to bed for the night I put ACV on a little piece of cotton, put it over the mole, and then put a bandage over it to hold it in place. I did this several nights in a row. My understanding is that the mole(s) will shrink, may darken, and eventually fall off within a week or so. Well, not the case with me. Yes, my mole did flatten down, but instead of the mole falling off it has buried itself so deep into my skin that once the mole / scab-like formation came off it left a pit in my skin that looks like a cigarette burn only smaller in dimension as the moles that I treated were smaller than the dimension of a cigarette. It also left the surrounding skin burnt looking and very red. One of the moles that I treated with the ACV was about the size of a pinhead, however the pitted scar that I now have is 5mm in diameter. My regret is that I treated all three of the moles I had at the same time instead of testing it with just one. Unfortunately, two of them are in places that are visible at all times (on my neck and the other on my face). I would NEVER suggested anyone doing this unless they would rather have a deep pit in their skin and larger in diameter than the mole they have right now."

[YEA]  09/16/2007: Lotta from New York, New York: "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!!"

[NAY]  08/11/2007: Annie from New York, USA: "I applied ACV to my mole for a couple of days. It shrink in size and seem to be working . Today I noticed that its scabbed and picked at it. On impulse I peeled it, revealing a dark spot underneath that looks it was going to turn into a mole or that this method didn't remove my mole successfully. I was very disappointed."
