Not sure if this is of any help, but quite often while walking around the various malls, you see stands that are advertising mole and blemish removal/laser traetment. I have never looked into the cost or implications of removing such a condition and I am not qualified to advise one way or another, but next time you are there, keep your eyes open for these people.

Maybe the Doc can give an insight into what causes these and possible after/side effects of removal.
