How Should I Go About Getting my Mole on my Nose Removed? (photo)

August 15, 2012
Asked By:Eelyah in Arlington, TX

When I was about 9 years old a mole developed on my nose and ever since I have been very self-conscious about it. I am now 16 years old and I really want to get it removed. I've already been to a dermatologist and she checked it out & said that she was afraid if she removed it I wouldn't like the scarring & suggested I go to a plastic surgeon. I realize there might be some scarring, but would like for the least amount possible. So, could I get some opinions on which way I should get it removed?
