Featured review
This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

A month has gone by since I ordered this, and since my payment was charged -- but still no product. WORSE, though, is that there is no number to call to get an answer about it, and the 'customer service' email they give you is useless because nobody ever responds. I've emailed them twice and it is as if my notes have gone into a black hole...

hmm

Does it mean one must wait 7months for an effective result?
dunno...to be honest I didn't really like those white dots that where left. (and being so visible over youtube I wonder how they look like infront of you)

I mean having a white dot instead of a single large ugly hairy mole it would be fine, but if its for those tiny-alloveryourbody-dot-moles I don't think the result will be pleasing.

I'll just think about it - don't wanna rush like the blemish-free purchase and make another mess :(

dunno about bioskincare, seems like the official website is down. Does it removes moles too tho?

right now i'm trying to find an HONEST 3rd party site which reviews such 'mole-removing' products, but I haven't come across anything accept Amazon

According to Amazon customer reviews it seems like wart and mole vanish works best
(dermatend an others had more negative reviews then positive ones)

Has anyone tried this Wart & Mole Vanish? the treatment looks kinda scary tho with those needle stuff :(

It doesn't even seem possible that these will stay red forever, they better turn skin colour some day. I'm getting mederma and I am also think of trying BIOSKINCARE, for the redness, has anyone tried bioskincare?

Technically they should tell you what the can contains especially if could contain any harmful chemicals people could be allergic to but id like to think this business have done their homework and have made a proper blemish remover and if not, they will have to deal with the bad publicity. But as i said before if you used the product somewhere well hidden once and see how and if it healed then there wouldnt be so many people upset here because of obvious scarring because they just threw the stuff on like it was body lotion. Its up to each individual to use the stuff correctly and if the focus tube is so hard to use, get someone to give you a hand.

Colly actually you're 100% right, the blemish free stat it is NOT liquid nitrogen, but then again they don't state what it is

>

(and by law, at least here in Europe, the can should have the 'contains' label; don't really know in the US so I can't complain)

I'm not into medic stuff so all my limited mind could think about is that a 'freeze' spray could go anywhere near liquid nitrogen as further more all the side effects perfectly match (stinging sensation and such). So basically that why I "thought" of it like LNitro

As for trying the product, I've treated mine like 3months ago and they're still visible; so it's defintely not a matter of weeks!

Louis and Davii, why are you looking into the effects of liquid nitrogen? Its stated on the blemish free website that they dont use liquid nitrogen. And if ya dont know whats in the can, you cant guess the outcome we are all taking a gamble using this stuff and i keep seeing messages from people that have tried it on two or three moles and getting disappointed when it doesn't work. try it somewhere hidden and wait a few weeks to see what happens before you all lace yourselves with the stuff. Its common sense.

Hi Jenni!

Thanks for the advice and the web link! I am just thinking that if I tan my skin lightly using UV it might make the blemishes blend in better as the scars are the same coulour I would go if I had a sun tan! I know it sounds daft but I am hoping eventually these red scars turn white!

Justin I suggest you try it out on somewhere less visible, like on your hip (as they suggest) ...but dont be surprised if the dark patch remains

they say that only "a ratio of 1 : 500 (95% of which are woman) do not benefit from this product"
hmm...seems like only those 1 out of 500 are purchasing this product?

I got my blemish free in the mail the other day and to be honest im kind of scared to use it now because of all these testimonies. I really dont know what im gonna do about this, but im fed up with these moles and like a few of you on here I am scared to ask out this one girl and I can never swim or anything. I think alot of people are suffering from this but no one ever knows cause I think we're all so good at hiding it. Good luck everyone I hope someone comes on here with info on a product that actually works.

Hi Jenni, I'm on day 6 now and I used it on three small flat moles. Much like yourself I have a redness around the area where the focus tube overlapped and non of the moles have removed. I didn't get a blister or scab.

I emailed Charlene about this and she said to wait it out to make sure I don't have a 'Rare' skin type which will cause it to go dark after about a week from pink and if not to reapply for 2 seconds longer than last time. I'm not sure if thats a dark red or brown. I am now thinking it might not work for me because i would have expected at least one of them to come off.

I'll let you know if mine starts to fade, and whether I do reapply. Did the product remove your blemish before going red and how long / how many times did you apply.

I am too embarrased to go and see a dermatologist to sort out these scars :-( I think the product does work but it will only ever replace the blemish with a scar so to me that just seems pointless :-(

My friend has suggested I buy a UV lamp as apparently they are good for healing and fading scars? Would anybody else recommend this?

I purchased this product and believe me it does not work! I have read a few of you that have had sucess and thats get. If that is the case. I used the product exactly as they say to and the spots get darker and nothing else. They do not scab or fall off. I am really concerned because there is red around where the spot is and the spots are darker and it has been three weeks. I am going to see my doctor and hope I have not caused a more severe problem than before using this product.
I personally will ever try it again.
Good luck to you all.

Hey Louis I never ment anything apart what I read...

http://www.skinsite.com/info_liquid_nitrogen.htm

Part 3 point 4
Liquid nitrogen treatment often leaves a permanent, white scar which is usually flat.

even though often does not mean always; chances are so.
and mind you, i'm in the same s* as you as I did use this thing aswell :(
so its not THAT funny!

Well don't Kat, be patient I am. My dad had a freeze burn with frozen propane or something when he was younger, he said it took a very long time to fade but it did fade. Go to a dermatologist and discuss all possible options, in fact that's what I am going to do. Anyways does anyone know how far 13 grand gets you with plastic surgery, if I give someone that kind of dough I expect I get what I want.

Hey Louis!

I totally sympathise with you as I also live my life under a sweater! I am so self concious of these horrible scars that I can't even wear a bikini this holiday. It looks like the scars are turning brown now and I can't see them fading any more. They are so bold and ugly, I wish i'd been more careful using this product. It is so hard to apply to certain regions. I too feel like taking the bullet to my head :-(

Don't worry about the fairness of your skin. It might delay the speed of healing time a bit. Just make absolute sure you use the focus tube and some vaseline helps apparently too, don't make the same mistake as me. If this doesn't work or if the redness doesn't fade, I'm going to a plastic surgeon. You always hear about how getting these things surgically removed leaves a big scar. Well plastic surgeons have good techniques and stuff they put on the moles to diminish the scars, I've heard that scars from plastic surgeons are nearly invisible. If you just get it removed by some regular doctor, then yeah all they do is cut it off and you're left with a scar. I have $13, 000.00 in my bank account right now, I will pay it all to get my 100 or so small flat moles removed. I also want him to do something about the scarring from this blemish free if it's still there and my scars from dermatend which do look pretty permanent. Do you think 13, 000 will be enough?

These F*n moles are ruining my life, I never had a youth, I'm 21 now and have been a caged bird for the past 1o years and I am dying to ask a girl out but I can't until I get this done. I am sure many people out there are like me so we should work together on this board... if you find anything at all or have any information, you should post it, I will do the same.

Louis I hear ya man I just recieved my kit today and have already looked at it. It looks like a huge pain in the ### to use, but like you this is virtually my last resort bro. Don't jump to anything rash man just wait it out I'm sure it's gonna work out for both of us. I'll let any skeptics know how it worked. I have very very fair skin. Does anyone know if thats gonna work to my advantage?

There's 2 sites that say liquid nitrogen will fade with time almost never leave scarring. Davii is just getting a rise out of us. You think it's funny I can't swim, I can't f***, I can't have a girlfriend. I live my life under a sweater. If this doesn't work out I'll be putting a bullet in my head.

IMPORTANT
=========

a simple google search for LIQUID NITROGEN TREATMENT EFFECT resulted in sites which state that it might leave permanent darker tone...

so if it is not healed within few days/weeks...i guess you're stuck w/ it for ever

(i have 2x and stupidly enough i tried on the forearm and unfortunately they're still very visible after almost 3 months)

Recieved mine this morning didnt take long at all it was shipped last thursday so less then a week! Sprayed it straight onto my skin to remove patches of freckles. My skin is red and feeling a bit tight but that is meant to happen. I will keep you all updated through out the week!

Hey Lois Matrone!

I was told that these scars will definately fade over time but I'm thinking it's going to be a very long time as yet. Some people will say that certain scars never heal and I believe this may be true. I have had scars turn white in the sunlight so I am thinking this is a last resort for me. The scars I have from blemish free do fade away when I press hard on them so maybe there is a small chance they will go away some day? Keep me posted on how you are healing! Thanks

I AM GOING TO USE BOLD LETTERS SINCE NO ONE IS ANSWERING MY OR KATS QUESTIONS. WE BOTH OBVIOUSLY APPLIED THIS PRODUCT INCORRECTLY AND DIDN'T USE FOCUS TUBES AND WE BOTH HAVE LARGE ROUND RED CIRCLES LEFT BEHIND. WILL THEY EVER FADE AND HOW LONG UNTIL THEY DO? Also, what product would you suggest for fading these flat red marks? This is VERY VERY important to me so a response and some advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

This product worked perfectly on me for removing freckles and moles. I was extremely skeptical at first and I even read some of the comments on this website. But I thought I would give it a try anyway.

It also shipped on time and I received it within a week! (USA) The moles required more than one application and healed in 2 weeks, the freckles only one application and healed in a week!

My complexion is very pale if that has anything to do with it. It worked on me and I might buy another one. Thank you

I have raised scars from where I previously had moles removed. The scars are the same colour as my skin tone but look very ugly as they are raised from the normal skin. Would blemish free remove these raised scars do you think? Also, can blemish free be used to remove stretch marks in anyway? Thanks

also (apologies for overposting) if this works the same as when the doctor freezes off a wart-then why wouldnt the doctor freeze off moles and freckles for the same (relatively) cheap fee?

This is the same as a freeze burn, do freeze burn scars ever go away? and how long does it take til it's completely unnoticeable? I'm thinking about trying mederma.

Colly,

About 5% of the kits we ship out take three weeks or more to reach our customers. We presume there are delays in customs or added inspections at the post office due to the terrorist threat. We state this on our web site. Please know that we have no control over this. All we can do is wait for our customers to contact us and then we resolve the problem.

Hi, i have recieved the product today which is 9 days to the UK. I have used it on a few small flat moles on my leg and on my hip. I'm not sure if i put it on for long enough on all of them because i was being very careful. I'll let everyone know of the results and then try on another. I still haven't tried it on any freckles yet because you need two arms to apply and the freckles are on the top of my arm that I would like to remove. Good luck everyone!

I bought this product too (for moles not freckles) and here's my opinion;

True, their website isn't one of the best and is a bit too crowded for a 1st time visitor. However its better to have them invest in the product then other stuff, even though their website is their 'work-place' and should be eye-candy to attract customers.

Shipping to Europe was ok for me, took like any other major online stores

After following all the (a bit mis-matching) instructions, the mole was finally removed via the scab...however as previous comments said, the treated area is darker and even though it turned to pink it has been so for over 2 to 3 months now.

I'm not treating any other area before I'm completely satisfied and the pinks fades away. I wouldn't mind waiting, as long as the final result is how i want it to be. I'll keep hoping and waiting and if eventually these dark patches will fade completely I would purchase another pair and threat the remaining moles.

im in the same position as deez11010 i ordered the kit 3 weeks ago and still no sign of it and there is only a 30 money back guarantee its just ridiculous im beginning to regret buying it.if it took 33 days to reach deez in america where the product is produced, i cant even imagine how long its going to take to reach ireland! regardless of whether the product is good its going to discourage other customers buying the product with unnecessary delays and poor communications.

I'm from Plano, TX and I just ordered this product. I plan on using it to get rid of my 30+ flat moles I have on my face. I'm a hispanic with medium tone skin so hopefully I won't get too much redness. I'll try it first on a mole on my arm or leg before trying it on the face. I'll also make sure to take before, during and after pictures and post my results here.
