Mole Removal from my Face (On my Nose) Via Laser? (photo)

NatashaZ
Hello, I have had a mole on my nose since childhood, it was quiet small in size and flat but in the last 5 years had mildly grown in size and to touch felt very mildly felt raised. My dermatologist removed it via laser. Yet on reading up on procedures of mole removal online I have come to know that that is not a preferable method and biopsy is necessary to determine whether its benign or not? I am very worried about the matter, any advice? many thanks
