Hmmm....not sure if face ones are different to anywhere else on the body to remove, but my PS removed 4 off my back. Three were to be checked (all came back ok) and one was on the back of my neck that I hated.

Figured he was a PS so he would do the best job compared to the local GP. Cant even see a scar AT ALL!

WHat about having it burnt off with that liquid nitrogen? Maybe ask your GP and see if that wont scar...

Good luck!

My DH had a small raised one removed from his face about 2 years ago. It left a little red indentation on his face, but IMO it looks better then the mole. Its really not noticeable unless you look up close. If it doesnt look suspicious then they can probally shave it off, but if the doctor thinks it needs to be tested then I think it has to be cut out like my DH's was.

He just had to rub a little ointment on it for a couple of days and that was it.

Bec, I just went into the dermo the other day about a mole on my face. (right under my eye) anyway he said he could shave it off, but it could possibly come back since there would still be the other half below the skin. He said if I wanted the whole thing removed it would leave a small scar and I should see a ps since it's right under my eye.

Hope that helps a bit.

I had one on the left side of my neck. It bugged me and my seat belt strap rubbed it constantly. My PS removed it for me during one of my BA post op visits. It healed perfectly and left no mark.

I had 2 removed on the top of my right breast near my cleavage. One left a small mark and the other is perfect. My Dermatologist removed those for me. They bugged me and I would always catch them with my fingernail and it would be OUCHIE!

A little neosporin and a teeny ban d aid for a couple days. Super easy and takes less than 15 minutes total at the doctor's office.

My mom has had several removed from her body/face. She went to a plastic surgeon wayyy back in the 70's/80's.. I have never really noticed any scars on her face. So I imagine that nowadays they can do really good jobs of removing moles.

i had one removed from my back a year ago. It healed really well, no scar. I had to have it scraped for insurance purposes, they send it for a biopsy so you don't have to pay anything. Of course on my face I would opt for laser removal if I didn't need a biopsy. It is never a bad idea to do a biopsy on a raised mole I don't think. I would speak with a dermatologist, they can tell you if they would recommend a biopsy and the best method of removal.

AH! I'm glad I came over here!
Becs, I'm recovering from 3 I just had my PS remove for me.
I elect to have them shaved down, no excision, because they have been checked by a dermatologist as benign, and an excision would leave a worse scar than the mole to begin with. I notice as I age the moles on my face are raising and getting larger. I hate them. Although no one else seems to see them I know they are there and my eyes constantly go to them in the mirror, in pictures. Then, a week ago, one of them sprouted a gray hair.

I just had it done Wed., so all three are inflamed and red on my face. I look like an overused hooker.

But I've had a couple other ones done before and when all that goes away, there are no moles to be found and the skin returns to its lovely healthy state.

As for the ones on my back, I don't care. We know they aren't cancer now, get them outta there (they're always "dysplastic") and with my long hair no one will ever see.

I had one on my neck that my PS removed at the time of my BA, it healed nicely and didn't leave a scar.

I had a mole removed from my left outer thigh shortly after liipo. My ps would of removed it while I was asleep for the lipo but I didnt sign a consent for mole removal.

Anyways, it looked suspicious but it turned out to be a blue nevus and it healed nicely :)
