Burned my mole trying to remove it with apple cider vinegar. Have I ruined my chances to remove it professionally? (Photo)

I read that using apple cider vinegar was an effective way to remove moles so I thought I would give it a try . I placed a q-tip with acv on my mole for 2 min , twice and it has left a huge scab. The scab was originally black however a portion of the scab was lifted and I removed it. It has been throbbing and bleeding and I am worried for the outcome . I am going to have it removed by a dermatologist but am now worried it will scar or that I have ruined my chances to remove It professionally .
