Should I get the mole on my nose removed?

[Puppystarfish23]

The picture is from a face years back so my face is a little different now but the mole is still the same. I was just trying to find a photo were the mole is prominent.

I've had my mole since I was 11 after a hoilday in Turkey. I remember when I got it crying to my mum and panicking because I thought I'd be laughed at at school. It just gave my bullies another excuse to pick on me. They'd tell me it's was probably cancerous and that it looked like a rat dropping.

I hated it until my older stister said it was cute and that it defines me and I should own it. Now I call it my little chocolate button. It's actually a lot more bigger then in the photo. No one says anything about it now I'm a adult. I do get spots in it though and that can be really annoying and painful and it makes it look even bigger which is gross. I do get asked by people if is ever have it removed and I'm really not sure it's kinda grown on me over the years and I think without it I'd look kinda plain but at the same time it's not really wonder what it be like without it. My boyfriend said he's not bothered about the mole but he's abit of a inventer and he's made a cream that can get rid of warts and he wants to see if it can get rid or reduce the sizes of big moles. It may sound crazy but it's worth a try. There also a new place that's open in town that removes moles for pretty cheap and people have been asking if I want it removing.

Makes me sad but people always say I should get rid of it. I kinda like it but then I think am I ugly because of it, it disgusting? I always thought it was cute.

See your doctor, get a referral to an approved clinic IF they will not do on NHS.

You may be able to have it done on NHS with it being on your face, it’s a case by case referral.

Doctor first (if you have not already).

I think it looks/you look cute :)
I have a mix of hyperpigmentation/lack of pigmentation in some areas of my face, took some time to get use to when it started appearing as a teen.. it also changes now and then, which make it a bit trickier :D. I had the option to get laser treatment to potentially remove it.. I eventually declined.. it is only cosmetic and I learned to embrace it. Just a part of my look now, and I think I look weird if it is gone, like on filtered photos xD

It's really not a problem
Only if you want to
I don't think it takes away from your looks or anything

Totally up to you.

But whatever you do the important aspect is that it not cause you problems any more.

I am generally totally against surgery as it is normally an attempt to resolve a poor self image problem which will not be resolved by the surgery.

But for something like that i think its totally fine, its clearly something which every one you interact with is going to notice so personally I think i would just get rid of it.

It is whatever you want it to be.

But it is unexpected and something that many people would have to get used to, as you have and the problem with that is that you meet new people all the time etc, hence why i suggest removing it but of course you have lived with this for some time now and it has become part of who you are etc so clearly you should not remove it if this is going to negatively affect you.

The long and the short of it is that it is your life, your face, your mole, your experience, so do whatever you want to do.

It is not ugly but it might turn cancerous someday. I have this thing on my face and I had a doc looks at it a few years ago and he said it was okay. It has gotten bigger so /i am having it remove in a couple of weeks,

[slatyb]

I had one, had it removed. It took almost no time and it was gone. I look much better without it.

If you can get it removed then why not.

I had a mole on my Forehead when I was younger which I got teased a bit about and I got it removed eventually, It did make me feel a bit better about myself but I still struggle with my Anxiety.

If it bothers you, have it removed. It's a simple procedure.

[IAMNathanael]

It's up to you. If you like it I think you should keep it.

[srijitdutta]

No you already have a sexy nose and the mole makes it look sexier. You are so beautiful. If I was your partner I would love to kiss you on your nose and on that mole.

[loveslongnails]

You're a pretty girl either way. If it bothers YOU, remove it. Who cares if it bothers anyone else? It's your face.

[Tstrbrainer]

If you like it, if your boyfriend likes it, you keep it.

And about the changes on the mole, consult a dermatologist.

[Surely]

It makes you unique. But I am sure that it make you feel better about yourself if it wasn’t there

[najekim]

I agree that it's not ugly but it might turn cancerous. Knew a couple people that happened to.

[alance99]

It looks fine and i dont think you should get removed

[Adogdog]

I would leave it. You are really cute by the way and have nice eyes!

[I_need_hoes]

The pope tells you that you are infact ugly, the pope demands you to get rid of it or you will burn in hell get fuged.

[backwoodsbranding]

Well if it bothers you then I say get rid of it.. honestly I'm all about being different and stand out it's better than not beIN noticed at all.

[Neosporin]

As long as it’s cheap and painless

[Neosporin]

Regardless of whether you think it’s cute or not it probably doesn’t belong on your body.

[Wise4myage]

Yes, I say get it removed.

[Manuel2]

If it is not cancer leaver it.

[noohair]

See a doctor before you cut.
