For many “mole carriers,” a mole can be an unattractive, irritating skin blemish. It causes discomfort by rubbing against clothes or just looks ugly, overshadowing the natural beauty of the skin. No wonder people are looking for effective ways to remove moles, which would erase them once and for all. Some of these forms are related to medical intervention and may ultimately seem useful. However, there may be more valuable methods that are easier to use, do not require a lot of money, and can be controlled by one person applying them. For the removal of moles, it is the method of using folk remedies, which has all the described features.

One of the possible home remedies for mole removal is potatoes. In fact, potatoes are widely known for their healing abilities in treating stomach disorders and skin lesions. These vegetables contain potassium, sulfur, phosphorus and chlorine, elements that help eliminate moles and skin blemishes. In addition, enzymes and vitamin C, which are in raw potatoes, feed the skin cell tissue, so applying this method will definitely have a positive effect. The main requirement is to use raw potato because the cooked vegetable lacks all the useful elements.

There are a few ways to remove moles with a potato. The first is to cut the potato into slices and simply cover the mole with a slice. The second way is to grate the potato and apply the mashed mass on the mole. The idea behind this is that the mashed potato releases juice faster than a solid slice. And the last possible way is to cover a mole with potato peel, because the upper layers of the potato are richer in the above-mentioned useful elements. In all cases, the slices or mashed potatoes must be kept in a mole for at least five minutes. After removing the potato, its juice should be allowed to dry on the skin to prolong the healing effect. When using the potato skins, they should be peeled with some pulp so that it can release potato juice. The application must be repeated 2-3 times a day until the results are visible.

Which of these three methods to use is up to the individual and can be interchanged during the treatment period. Of course, after cutting all the skins off a potato, you’d be foolish to throw it away if it’s not going to cook. That is why it is a good idea to continue applying potato slices or grated potato on a mole instead of skins. Removing moles with a potato can take different amounts of time depending on the size, color intensity of the moles, and skin type. Sometimes noticeable results can occur after two weeks and sometimes complete removal of the mole can take up to two months. This period of time may seem too long, however it is worth a try because it costs pennies and is beneficial for the skin all the same.

Removing moles with a potato is just a small example of the many possible ways to easily remove a mole with home remedies.
