Different Methods to Remove a Mole from my Nose? (photo)

rosethinks
I was born with this mole, and recently went to a dermatologist to ask about getting it removed. The mole has hairs, and kept growing over the years. He told me that he would have to remove the base of the mole, and cut the skin around it in the shape of an eye, but it would leave a large scar. Are there any alternative methods to this? The mole is expected to keep growing but I would rather have it removed without leaving a noticeable scar on my nose.
