Two days ago, the dermatologist examined my skin with the dermatoscope

Scheduled the new exam for three months, but said they could be
removed right away as well. What is the better option? I have to say
that I am a light-skinned 36 years old male with green eyes, easily
get sunburns, with a family history of malignant melanoma (uncle died
from it).

Oncologist's advice would be much appreciated.

Have you ever met anyone who had a skin cancer removed who didn't need
additional skin cancers removed after that? I haven't. That's because
the removal of the first one activates others to appear.

I've also talked to people who got rid of skin cancers using tea tree
oil - even ones that had been scheduled for surgery. I use tea tree
oil to get rid of a suspicious irregular 'triangle' on my cheek. it
has come back many times because I haven't attended to it regularly -
when it goes away, I forget - But it has been gone now for a few
months.

Brightwinger, thank you for your reply, but I have to say that I don't
believe in those mumbo-jumbo medicines for mole removal. Root of the
mole has to be removed, as I understand - and that can be done
successfully only with the surgical excision. Not to mention that HP
verification is mandatory, suspicious or not.
