Molluscum may increase in number and sittings may have to be repeated at weekly intervals. Needle extirpation with TCA application, Curetting, Radio frequency application, etc. are various modalities used t treat molluscum.

Best way to remove molluscum is by curetting. Visit a dermatologist at the earliest
Next Steps
curetting is a simple procedure in which local anaesthesia is applied to the affected part and molluscum is removed with a sharp instrument
