| Summary: | Melanocytic nevi of the head and neck region are common among all ages with no predilection for males or females. These moles can appear as small, dark brown spots on the skin anywhere on the face including the eyelids, which may not be cosmetically acceptable.
Case Report
Here we report a case where a toilet cleaner (tezaab) was used to remove the facial mole leading to scar formation, which otherwise could have been removed with various latest modalities with no residual scar.
Discussion
Melanocytic nevi can be removed safely by the latest modalities available by the trained professionals but at times people try home remedies or take internet suggestions before consulting a doctor which can lead to ugly scars.
