Moles are common growths on the skin that are usually brown or black in color. They can appear anywhere on the skin, either alone or in groups. Most appear in early childhood, and they can grow or change in color. Moles occur when the cells in the skin grow in a cluster, instead of being spread throughout the skin. These cells, called melanocytes, make the pigment that gives skin its natural color.
Most moles are harmless. If a mole on your body has the following traits, it's most likely nothing to worry about:

Try one of the home remedies below to help lessen the color, size and appearance of your moles.
1. Apple Cider Vinegar
Applying raw, organic apple cider vinegar to a mole every day can help to remove it by scabbing over the mole and allowing it to fall off over time. Tap a cotton ball or paper towel soaked with apple cider vinegar to your face (or any other area) and let the apple cider vinegar remain on the skin overnight. You might want to apply some coconut oil to the skin around the mole for protection.This woman removed her mole in 5 days!
