Mole-ie mole-ie mole face

Sorry if this has been asked before, but, at risk of outing myself...

...I have a couple of fair sized miles on my face which, as I get older, have started sprouting hairs. I know. Witchy. I've been plucking to date, but am vaguely aware this may not be for the best - and they continue to grow back, sometimes over night

I'm not very 'fashion & beauty' butt his is bothering me. So what's the best course of action? Keep plucking? Bleach (although they're quite coarse and long)? Electrolysis (inwhichcase how do I know who's credible and capable - it's my face after all).

Thanks in advance

what about having the moles removed?
I had 1 removed from my lipline and have never regretted it.

cost £500 privately but worth it.

I wonder would laser remove the moles and hairs? Worth a think. Surgery is fine, if it's along a lip line or eyebrow line, but remember surgery will leave a (hopefully) faint scar.

Lasers would remove the hairs for good.
Somewhere like the Skin Clinics have clinics across UK.

Lasers might remove a tiny mole but not a larger one.

You need a plastic surgeon to remove it- that's who did mine. If it's done well there should be no visible scar.

Thank you. Researching now while twanging unplucked hairs

Quinoderm 10 cream shrinks moles apparently. I have a small mole on my cheek and the quinoderm 10 cream was making it itchy. When I researched it there were loads of folk claiming it made there moles shrink (apparently this is what the itching was) and pretty much disappear. I've stopped using the cream now as it wasn't working for my acne but might be worth a try if you want to get rid of your moles?

Oh and for the hair issue I just trim with scissors but my hair is fair so it's not that noticeable anyway.

I had moles removed from face using laser. Very quick and relatively painless.

Highly recommend.

I used a plastic surgeon.
