Hi,I’m so glad to hear you’re doing well following your Mohs surgery, and it’s wonderful that the cancer was successfully removed.While the surgical site has healed nicely overall, I understand your concern about the raised area. This is referred to as a “dog-ear” in dermatologic surgery—a common occurrence when there isn’t quite enough tissue excised to create a smooth contour, especially in areas with natural curvature like the cheek.While lasers can be effective for improving surface texture and stimulating collagen remodeling, they typically won’t address the underlying fullness or elevation. In your case, the most effective option would be to consult with a cosmetic or Mohs surgeon experienced in scar revision. A small, well-planned re-excision can better match the natural contour of your cheek. Following that, I would recommend a combination of dermabrasion and CO₂ laser resurfacing to further refine the scar and help it blend seamlessly with the surrounding skin.
