Mole removal
For a lesion that is on or near your eyelid, I recommend that you see a board certified facial plastic surgeon or an oculoplastic surgeon.

Eyelid Mole Removal - Who is the best to remove it.
Choose between a board certified plastic surgeon of one of the following disciplines: Plastic Surgeon, Oculoplastic Surgeon, or Facial Plastic Surgeon. I would NOT go to someone less trained such as a Dermatologist, Family Practice, or General Surgeon

Moles on eyelid
You could see a dermatologist or plastic surgeon to have the lesions removed. The most common type of "mole" on the eyelid is called "seborrheic keratosis." Removal of these may not be covered by your insurance because some plans consider it cosmetic.

You Have a Choice
In this instance, you can likely have these removed successfully by either a Dermatologist, a Plastic surgeon, or and Oculoplastic Surgeon.

Oculoplastic surgeon
If the mole is as you described it, I would consult an oculoplastic surgeon. Although a regular plastic surgeon would be fine, as would a dermatologist with much skin surgery experience, my choice would be an oculoplastic surgeon.
