Question: How can I convince a skin specialist that a mole I have in the face should be removed!?
Let me start by saying that I live in Portugal so the health system may be different of the USA's!.

I don't want to pay rivers of money to remove a mole so, if my skin specialist agrees that the mole have to be removed, I can remove it in the hospital for free!.
How can I do it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
If the mole is asymmetric in shape, or raised or odd-colored, it raises a concern for skin cancer, and usually a dermatologist uses a mole-removing tool to shave off a mole and send it off to a lab for testing!.

If your mole appears to be normal, then at least in US it's a cosmetic procedure based on non-medical reason and you would incur a small fee!. I know someone who had moles removed from her face and one from her shoulder (the one on shoulder appeared to be abnormal, so this one was sent off to a lab)!. The fee was less than $100 or something after insurance!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
