ANYONE that notices a mole or sore that looks unusual or doesn't heal should ALWAYS get to the doctor ASAP! Besides, the whole mole or sore has to be completely removed by a doctor or surgeon. I wouldn't take any chances with some 'natural' product.

pure organic oregano oil cures skin cancer!! look up stories on the internet it really works you can buy a vile of it at most natural stores put some drops on the area and cover with a band aid repeat daily until gone. Do the research for yourself on the internet.

I had basil in two spots.

What MOHS is (pronounced moze) , its a surgeon plastic surgeon all in one.  They cut the cancer out, then they put you off to the side and dont close the wound and go and test it, and make sure they have it all, if they do, then they close you. if they dont, they cut more, only what the need to and in what direction.

With mine, one they got it all the first time, and one I had to go back in 3 times.  So I am glad I did it that way, because I know it all gone.

if you are in the NYC area, Mine was the absolute best, but I am sure, any major medical center will have a specialist
