I had a mole removed 3 months ago. I don't care to much about scaring. I would just prefer to not have a crater on my face.
Thank you for your photos. You have several options to improve the apperance of your scar. One option is to trade the round crater scar for a linear scar. This would require a surgical excision of the scar and carefully design the new incision to hide within you normal crease. Another option is to release the scar and to fill the area with filler. Finally, you can use microneedling which manually creates thousands of channels within the collagen of the scar to promote your own collage to fill in the area and to smooth out the heaped borders. It is best to have an in-office evaluation to determine which treatment options will give you the best and safest results. Hope this helps!!Johnson C. Lee, MD Plastic Surgery
