    I had one on my face and removed it in just one night by applying iodine and organic castor oil and covering with a bandaid.

    I had one form on my face near my temple and my parrot picked it off gradually over a week. Talks about a painful removal! Part came back but the part got it again. Currently it's gone.

    You don't mention grey among the colours. The ones I've had diagnosed are grey. Not brown or black, but grey. (It's a colour I wouldn't have thought could appear on my otherwise pink skin.) Just so nervous information seekers know that that can be the case.

    My primary care doctor thought mine could be melanoma. I was so relieved when a dermatologist said it was seborrheic keratosis😮‍💨 I had it frozen yet it’s still there.🤦‍♀️
  • @nessa7855
    Is there a way to prevent further growth?
  • @norman7179
    Will Fluorouracil work to remove the S K's ??
  • @Vintaget26
    See a dermatologist. They’ll remove them same day. It’s a very quick procedure.

    Natural Paths keep telling me its my liver, ???, I am not a drinker, ,, BUT as a precaution I get them checked every two years.... i have had tons removed always return grrrrrrr
  • @Mickey-jn8hz
    It’s high time something natural was discovered to get rid of these awful things. Tired of having my doctor look at me and smile, calling them the barnacles of life….freezing them off hurts like hell and does not work.
  • @shelly7017
    I don't like having them on my back. I'd like mine removed.

    I was already using a 7% glycolic acid toner and 15% glycolic acid cream daily for the past several years when my SK formed on my eyelid. I thought it was cancer, but the derm says not. Since it is on my eyelid, is there any treatments that can be used there? I hope I am not stuck with this thing. It's a bit smaller than a dime, situated over my the center of my eye, and I can feel it when I blink. It's itchy, stings and hurts at times. My understanding is insurance does not cover any SK treatment. That's kind of cruel. I am sure it will continue to grow if I don't get rid of it.

    I have a bunch of them on my back, thanks to lots & lots of sun exposure & genetics. They are ugly.

    These can resolve themselves by eating a very low carb, ketosis diet.
