5 out of 5 stars

I used to have a raised brown mole in the middle of my face. First I went to a plastic surgeon who wouldn't touch it and was afraid of it scarring. Than I heard of ACV. Let me tell you I was at my wit's end with this mole. Imagine waking up every morning for 20 years and looking into a mirror and seeing a spot on your face that you can never just wipe off.

Anyway... I applied Apple Cider Vinegar to my face and did not really protect the surrounding skin other than just not trying to get Apple Cider Vinegar on it. After scratching up the mole a bit I applied Apple Cider Vinegar to it using a q-tip. I do not think I used a band-aid but rather just constantly dipped and applied it using a q-tip for a few hours with applied pressure. I may have used a band-aid for one night but I would bet on it that I didn't. Q-tip constant application with pressure will drastically speed up the process.

So the mole turned somewhat white, shrinked and than scabbed up. Over a week or so this scab fell off. I noticed a little spot that was still brown so I did the same process again and voila, no more mole.

The healing process takes time and it will be red->pink for a while. Probably will take 3-6 months to return to skin color. So here I am 5 years later and you can't even tell anything was ever on my face. Looks perfect. (It looked like it does now 4 years ago)

I feel as though ACV really targets the mole instead of the surrounding skin. Moles are really susceptible to ACV (I used Apple Cider Vinegar with the mother). You should still give an effort to protect the skin even though I didn't, just to be safe.

I had a mole on my belly for years, then it changed and raised up like a bubble. So having previous good results with ACV on the skin I soaked and squeezed out some cotton with ACV and covered it with a square bandage so it would stay moist and prevent air from drying it out. I did this for a week, possibly a bit longer. The entire thing fell out and left a clean and clearly defined crater in my belly, which healed over, completely smooth although the skin color is slightly whiter in that spot. Just absolutely amazing!! Good going on your success as well!

Hey I basically had the same experience just wanted to know, did you keep bandaiding the area and keeping it covered in aquaphor for the 3-5 months? That's what I'm doing now 4 days in and it looks very good 🤞 seems like I quickly burned the mole off and it's already going to the red/pink phase
