I have a raised mole right below my nose in the mustache area. IT is about 3 to 4 milimeters in dimatere. i was thinking to have it removed, seeing as it is really raised.Will hair still grow that part of my mustache though? because if it is a discolartion scar i can easily grow facial hair to hide it.
