What can I do to minimize redness and heal, 3 months after mole removal? (photos)

Mole removal begins with a comprehensive examination and consultation to determine the likelihood of a mole being worrisome. Excisional and incisional biopsies are reserved for suspicious moles. But it’s good news that most moles are not problematic and are only cosmetic, thus leading to the option of scarless or non-surgical mole removal with lasers and RF and plasma. Our office specializes in non-surgical mole removal.

Based on your photos and your post I do not see anything abnormal with the scar on your cheek. The scar is fairly fresh and can take up to 1 year to become a more "mature" scar. I would keep up with your current regimen of scar gel and sunscreen (sunscreen being the most important factor). You may also want to look into some laser treatments like IPL or laser resurfacing for the hyperpigmentation, but that may be more on the aggressive side. There are also some peels and maybe even micro-needling treatments that may help. All in all I think your scar is healing well, you can try to look into these other modalities and treatments or you can just wait it out, certain aspects of healing cannot be rushed.
