What is Dysplastic Nevus?

Dysplastic nevi are atypical moles that differ from normal moles in size, shape, and color. They are usually larger than typical moles and have irregular borders. While they may not always be cancerous, dysplastic nevi can increase the risk of developing skin cancer, especially melanoma. Regular monitoring and medical consultation are crucial for early detection of changes that may signal skin cancer.

Common Symptoms of Dysplastic Nevus

  • Irregular shape and borders
  • Multiple colors (brown, black, pink, red, or tan)
  • Larger size, typically more than 5mm in diameter
  • Raised or uneven surface
  • Itching, bleeding, or crusting

If you notice any of these changes in your moles, consult a healthcare professional to monitor and assess potential risks.

Natural Remedies for Dysplastic Nevus

While medical supervision is necessary, certain natural remedies can support overall skin health and may help reduce inflammation and irritation associated with dysplastic nevi.

Aloe Vera for Skin Soothing

Aloe vera is known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce irritation and calm redness around dysplastic nevi, supporting the skin's healing process.

  • Apply fresh aloe vera gel directly to the affected area.
  • Leave it on for 15–20 minutes before rinsing off.
  • Repeat twice daily for best results.

Turmeric for Anti-Inflammatory Benefits

Turmeric contains the compound curcumin, which has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It may help reduce skin inflammation and promote healing.

  • Create a paste using turmeric powder and honey or coconut oil.
  • Apply the paste to the affected area for 10–15 minutes.
  • Rinse with lukewarm water.

Regular consumption of turmeric in food or as a supplement may also offer additional skin health benefits.

Tea Tree Oil for Antibacterial Protection

Tea tree oil is renowned for its antibacterial and antifungal properties. Although it should not be applied directly to large moles, it can help with minor irritations and infections that may arise around dysplastic nevi.

  • Mix tea tree oil with a carrier oil like coconut or jojoba oil.
  • Apply a small amount to the area once or twice daily.

Be sure to patch-test the oil on a small area of your skin to check for any allergic reactions.

Vitamin E Oil for Skin Repair

Vitamin E is a powerful nutrient for skin healing. It can help repair damaged tissue, reduce scarring, and improve the overall appearance of skin affected by dysplastic nevi.

  • Use pure vitamin E oil and massage it into the affected area daily.
  • You can also apply vitamin E directly from capsules by puncturing them and using the oil.

Green Tea for Antioxidant Support

Green tea contains antioxidants like epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which can help protect the skin from oxidative damage caused by environmental stressors like UV radiation.

  • Drink 1–2 cups of green tea daily for internal benefits.
  • Apply cooled green tea to the skin with a cotton ball for topical relief.

Regular green tea consumption may help reduce skin inflammation and improve overall skin health.

Apple Cider Vinegar for Skin Toner

Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is often used as a natural skin toner due to its antibacterial and exfoliating properties. It can help cleanse the skin and balance its pH.

  • Mix equal parts of water and ACV.
  • Apply the solution to the affected area with a cotton ball.
  • Rinse off after 10 minutes.

Use this remedy sparingly, as ACV can be harsh for sensitive skin.

Additional Tips for Skin Health

  • Maintain a healthy diet rich in antioxidants to support skin health from the inside.
  • Wear sunscreen daily to protect your skin from UV damage, which can exacerbate skin conditions.
  • Keep your skin moisturized with natural oils like coconut oil or jojoba oil.
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure and seek shade during peak hours.

Can someone please help me? I was diagnosed with Dysplastic Nevus (moderate) so its not melanoma yet and I want to nip this in the bud quick. Its on my stomach. I told my Dr that I do now want to have an incision done on it. I am doing a recheck in January 2026 and hoping it will come back negative from anything. Right now I am using Castrol Oil rubbing throughout the day. I understand there are other measures to take. I saw some things with egg plant and baking soda. Can some recommend something for me to take daily? I am also getting turkey tail powder to take daily as well. I am currently looking for Enoki Mushroom powder as well if anyone has any recommendations on that as well. Your advice is much appreciated as I am not fond of Doctors of western medicine. :)

Hi Christie,

The following review article suggests that silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) may act to potentially help prevent melanoma :

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36990267/

Here is a relevant quote :

' Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have attracted significant interest in the field of cancer research especially for melanoma treatment because of their excellent properties including antioxidant, antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, and antitumor abilities. In this review, the applications of AgNPs in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cutaneous melanoma are mainly introduced. '

Are you talking about something like this?

Sovereign Silver 2 oz

Colloidal Silver" has been used since the late 1800's in countless applications, and encompasses a wide variety of silver products. Many contain (claimed or unclaimed) salts, proteins, compounds or stabilizers, all of which affect the safety and efficacy of silver. Bio-Active Silver Hydrosol contains 98% positively charged silver in pharmaceutical-grade purified water. Our unique silver species, with a verified and unmatched particle size, remains in its most active state for use within the body.

Hi Christie,

No, but that might work similarly. The literature referenced silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) which are a reduced form of ionic silver often used in studies.

Earth Clinic used to sell AgNPs, but they no longer do. AgNPs are usually in the yellow to dark brown color range.

Hi Christie,

My son was diagnosed with this. He actually went in for something else and said "BTW, I'd like you to look at this" turned around, lifted up his shirt in the back to expose a "spot". The Derm Dr literally jumped back a foot and said "This has to come off NOW"....and proceeded to remove it with a hot needle. My son had to have follow up care with a surgeon b/c it was right over his spine. Since then he's been okay but I still remind him to put sunblock on when he's outside. There's a product called CuraDerm and it's VERY expensive. It's concentrated eggplant if I remember right. Those who've had MM, BCC, and SCC are very happy with it. Don't forget there's always the bitter, raw, apricot seeds that do wonders for MM and other skin cancers. There's a story of a man who thought maybe he had skin cancer, went to his doctor who removed it and it came back positive. He started eating 10 raw, bitter, apricot seeds daily and his cancer hasn't returned....that was over 30 years ago...so don't panic, there's always help and we at EC are here to do just that.

So you think it would be ok to do both? The curaderm and the apricot seeds? I am not sure who to talk to but I am 135lbs. So wondering how many seeds to eat. I am assuming I chew them up on an empty stomach every morning?

Since you don't have MM yet, consuming 5/dly should be fine. You can take them with food, I did for my breast cancer but I took 20/dly with food.
