Will this dent from shave incision mole removal heal? (Photo)

August 8, 2018
Asked By:Datagirl in Boca Raton, FL

I had a mole removed by shave incision from my nose about a week ago. The doctor told me the mole would be shaved flat, and end up looking just like my mole in color after healing, except flat. The mole was a pink/flesh colored originally. When I got home, I noticed the scab was indented in my skin. I thought maybe it would be better when the black scab came off, but it's still indented and Im worried. im just wondering if this looks like it has any chance of healing to not be indented.
