    I have a few moles on my neck and my back. I've been meaning to get them removed but I've been putting them off for ages..

    Any anyone got this done, what is the best way to go about it?

    Go see your GP about it, they will probably just check the out and depending on the type of mole (size, colour etc.) some of them can be burned off. Can't remember the name of the stuff they use though, anyone know?

    I went to my GP and was referred to a dermatologist about another issue. During my initial consultation with the dermatologist she checked out all my moles. One on my arm looked dodgy apparently so I'm getting it removed next week. :)

    Go to a Family practitioner (or GP in your country) and have them assess your moles. Many can be removed in a minor surgery clinic, basically you'd be given a local for the pain and the mole would be frozen and excised (cut).

    This really depends on size, location and type of mole. I recommend having all the removed moles biopsied as a precaution, but the MD should know if there is an actual need.
