I ordered a mole-removing product over the Internet called Wart and Mole Vanish from Pristine Herbal Touch (http://www.wartmolevanish.com), to get rid of the mole on the back of my cheek, right below my ear. When I first putting it on, I not only applied the product to the small mole, but to some of the surrounding skin as well. This resulted in the formation of a scab, which was about as large as a quarter - larger than the mole was before it!
After about a week and a half, the scab finally slid off during a hot shower - and the mole was gone all right! But for the past couple of days, I have been left with a patch of bright red/pinkish skin where the scab once was, again, about the size of a quarter, and on my cheek! I feel that this is even more noticeable than the mole once was, as it’s a lot bigger, and very red. It has been this way for about 4 or 5 days, and I am very eager to get rid of this red flag on the side of my cheek.
The first day after the scab came off, I put some Vitamin E on it – straight from the capsule, then I read someplace to use Aloe Vera Gel on it, and I have been instead using that for the last 3 days, twice a day, and nothing seems to be happening. I have also been covering it up with a band-aid, because I've also read that sunlight is bad for it during this stage? But anyway, I am very self-conscious about this, and at this point I would rather have a skin-colored scar than a bright red circle on my face. I also read somewhere online that this could take months, because it is so large – and that thought really scared me… a lot.
So does anybody know of a way to either successfully (and quickly) get rid of this, OR a way to cover it up (like the name of some product that could mask this until it heals)? If anybody could recommend anything… I would really appreciate it, to an extent you would not believe.
Thank You
