Since i was born i had a mole above my lip right side next to my nose and i have ALLWAYS hated it and i feel it is the most unatractive thing in the world because it also grows 1/4 inch hairs (Eww).
Over the summer we made a apointment to see if it could get removed and i will be honest while driving over there i was praying for it to be cancerous just so the insureance would cover it...Its not and without the money to get it removed i decided to take it into my own hands.
I looked online for home remedies and they said Apple Cider Vinegar(ACV) soaked into a cotton ball being held up to the mark with a bandage over the cotton to keep it in place i found the bottle it said 5% acidity even though online it said to use 10% acidity im still going to try it.
In short i am going to document what happens when i try it.
Online they said it would take up to two weeks then start to scab and fall off
Day-1
Learned ACV online decided its worth a shot put it on and left it on over night when i woke up in the morning i found it was a bit smaller and lighter with the exception of a small dark scab in the middle.
Day-2
I have decided to put on the ACV twice a day after the first application it seems a bit lighter and on the second before bed when i woke up i found it was got a bit darker the whole mole is starting to get scabbed over
Day-3
More scabbing and it is getting a blackish brown color
Day-4 The whole thing is almost a full scab theres a thin line on the bottom thats still unscabbed.
Also its almost black and its feels like a scab to the touch makes me want to rip it off but i wont because they said to let it fall of to prevent scarring
More To Come soon
So you maybe asking "Why am i making such a gross journal?" well because i can see it working and if any one is in the same boat it could help them allthough if you decide to try it do it at your own risk because ACV is acidic and can hurt your skin.
