- Antibiotic ointment is then applied 4 times a day for 2 weeks after cosmetic mole removal.

How to remove moles naturally?
Common natural methods for mole removal that people might consider include applying apple cider vinegar, garlic paste, baking soda mixtures, or essential oils. However, these methods are not medically proven and carry significant risks, including skin irritation, chemical burns, infection, permanent scarring, and incomplete removal.
Attempting to remove moles naturally at home is strongly discouraged by medical professionals. Instead, it’s always safest and most effective to seek professional advice from experienced cosmetic doctors.

Is mole removal covered by Medicare Australia?
If a mole is being removed because skin cancer is suspected, this is covered under Medicare.
Mole removal purely for cosmetic reasons is not covered by Medicare. At Contour Clinics, we do not provide mole removal if skin cancer is suspected. If our doctors identify any suspicious features in your mole you will be referred to a dermatologist to have the lesion formally cut out and sent for histopathological analysis.
