I have a bunch of moles on my back that I would Like to have removed. A couple of them are raised and a bunch of them are flat. I spend a lot of time out side in the sun without a shirt on. My goal is to have them removed with little to no scaring and for the spot to have the same skin tone as the rest of my skin.
You first need to see your dermatologist to determine if any of your moles have the potential to be worrisome. If they are all considered benign and cosmetic, then shave removal would probably be your best bet. Remember that there will always be a small chance or recurrence. This also generally gives the best cosmetic appearance after removal.
I had a very slightly raised mole about the same diameter as a pencil eraser removed from my cheek via radio surgery. Currently it is bright pink and there is a fairly good sized divot where the mole used to be. Will that eventually fill in some or will it be like that permanently? Thanks.
Any time you have surgical procedure to remove a skin growth there is a small likelihood of skin discoloration (pink or brown) that may last a few months and scarring. Scarring may improve after few months to a year. Over the counter silicone based scar creams (e.g., Kelo-cote, Neosporin scar solution) can help to expedite healing of scars slightly.
Sun avoidance and protection with sunscreen will accelerate diminishment of pink discoloration and prevent deposition of brown spot in the area. If after a few months you desire scar cosmetic treatment, there are prescription creams (retinoids) that can help as well as laser therapies (pulse dye laser or fraxel) that can also improve the scar significantly.
Good luck.
