My mole was raised and red but small. The PA said she could remove it and her nurse explained to me that in one month I'd have a flat slightly pink scar. It was removed by the shave technique. It's been four months and I have a purple scar that is deeply indented. It looks WAY worse than the mole ever did. I am looking for advice on what I can do to improve the scar? Micro needling? Laser? I am going back to the PA but really want to hear other opinions because my trust in her is shaken.
Hello, When will the shininess improve? 4 months ago I had radio frequency mole removal, at the moment my scar is light pink and slightly shiny. This shininess is making the scar hard to cover with makeup as it is slightly atrophic too. When will this improve? I have been using silicone gel for 3 months. What are my treatment options and how long should I leave it before I do something? Would microneedling be of benefit? Thanks!
4 months ago, 2 nevus were removed in my face. 2 months ago I began to appear in that part of the face grains, cysts, encysted hairs, etc .. Now my face has stayed that way, what can I do?
4 months ago I had a small mole removed from my arm by shave excision. The mole was benign. The area now though is red and slightly raised. Will this go away? How long will it take to be similar to my normal pigmentation? When should I see someone about it?
I had a flat mole shaved off in February, the biopsy came back as mildly atypical. I noticed about a month ago that there is a small spot where the pigment is returning. I have an appointment with my dermatologist in a few days but I am trying to prepare myself and am wondering if it will be necessary to have it removed again?
I had some suspicious moles removed from my upper legs on may 2017. They were shaved off the one from my back is doing great, almost the same color as my skin. The two moles from my upper legs are ugly. They're dark pink and the scarr is kind of raising up. What can I do to help it improve its appearance, and make it less noticeable? Why such a difference on the healing from the ones in my back? I think they looked better as moles than scarrs.
I had moles removed 4 months ago by a laser surgery, then I had scabs which fell off after 2 weeks following the surgery. Now I have scars, red and visible. In the sun I am using a maximum protection but I would also like to cover them with a light concealer ( e.g. Maybelline concealer cover stick, or a heavier coverage e.g.Makeup forever full cover concealer ). My question is whether I can start using make up now, 4 months post surgery.
Had a mole removed 4 months ago and have just seen dark black/brown/red spots on it. Initially it was just flat and red, not sure how long its been like this as its on my back so cant see it, could be weeks. Whats happening? Is it normal? Still feels flat and its not painful.
