I have a small mole on my face, which is like a spot rather than the ones that hang out like a bubble from your skin. I tried to paint with Iodine on the mole and a few spots a couple of times. I did this very lightly as the mole is on my face and not hidden behind hairline or anything else. I do not have any change in my mole or skin spots, yet.
ZMZM: What kind of mole is yours? It seems like you left the cotton swab on for a very long time and covered. Hope it improves. Please keep us posted with your progress.
