moles
I have dark black moles on my face, about 10 in total, around my forehead and chin. I look like a constellation! I wanted to know if anyone has heard of surgery to remove these, and can shed any info on this?

I know how you feel! I'm 22 years old and I used to have A LOT on my face including this humungous one on the right side of my face. I never really made a big deal out of it, but my mom always made a big deal out of it. As an Asian, certain moles on your face are supposed to represent bad luck or good luck. Yeah...a bunch of superstitions. My mom even tried cosmetic laser surgery on the big one to no avail when I was a kid. Really painful as a child by the way. I know if your moles are not as deep, there's a product that can bleach it and with time, it'll go away. For moles with deep roots, it might be more difficult. You should really look into some sort of bleaching product from a doctor or dermatologist. I know when I went to Hong Kong recently, I saw a lady on the street doing a demonstration on someone's face, so I'm guessing it's popular in Asian countries. I would recommend the doctor I had, but I'm sure it's out of your way in Alhambra, California. Just know there's a way to get rid of these pesky moles without the pain and this is a person who doesn't do well with pain. Good luck!

I really wish I could, but it was used on me by a doctor to dry out the crust of the moles and then he gave me some yellowish cream afterwards to maintain my spots for a week or two. To tell you the truth, it could be a Chinese herbal medication or something. I just looked up Dermatend and it does work similarly like how the website says it does. If you use any products, be sure to test it on your arms first. That's what the doctor did before using the product on my face. I forgot to mention that my moles were flat and they didn't bulge out or anything.
