I have mole on the inner breast cleavage area and need to have it removed. Is there any chance they will puncture or pop my breast implant by using a small needle to numb to area? I am very worried and don't want to take any chances of them doing this , but also afraid of having skin cancer?
Most doctors can inject the skin around the mole without any problems. If you are concerned, see a plastic surgeon who will feel more comfortable doing it. The risk of damaging the implant is minimal.
Hi, I have a mole that is located on my left cheek right above the mustache end. This mole is about to be removed by a plastic surgeon.I know I am going to have a scar and I have been researching the mole removal procedures and it seems this is the procedure that will leave the biggest scar out of all the other procedures. So now I am reluctant to remove the mole using this method and I am thinking about shaving the mole and have less scar? So what do you doctors think? shave it or remove it?
If it is the color that bothers you, the excision would be the way to go. Faces heal well, and your scar should be minimal in 2 or so years. Best to you.
I have a mole on my right lower cheek about the diameter of a pencil eraser. It's raised a bit but not a lot. I am getting it removed by a plastic surgeon in a couple months but I am really worried about the scarring. The method is with stitches. Will there be a lot of scarring? Will it look worse than having the mole on my face?
Cutting out a mole and using stitches to close the wound will leave a scar. Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder one cannot say whether a patient will prefer having a mole or a scar.
