Should I go for CO2 Fractional Laser treatment or excision of my facial moles? (photo)

Dear InquiringThanks for the question- when it comes to Fractionated laser treatments these work well for scars that are not the same heightlaser resurfacing is good for pigmented skin changes from aging and mild wrinklesit is not the best first treatment for moles that are raised Hopefully your treatment out of the country will go smoothly, consider that you may have complications and will need to find doctors for followup. Consider surgical excision and then leave laser resurfacing for later in the healing processBest Wishes

I feel that it is never appropriate to use a laser as
your primary treatment for removing a mole. Regardless of how
"benign" a mole may appear, a biopsy may still reveal it to be
atypical. There are many ways to surgically remove a mole with a minimal scar
and have tissue to send for microscopic examination which is the only way to
ensure that it was benign. Using a laser to "destroy" a mole will alter its look and make it more difficult to observe for precancerous
changes in the future. Plus, I'm not convinced that a laser will even give the best cosmetic result.
