Is there a mole reduction procedure? (photos)

Kenny.pcOct 20, 2021
I have a mole on my lower cheek which is almost completely flat, but it does have a slight bump to it. I do not want it to be completely removed, but i just want it to be way smaller; maybe as small as a little pen dot, like really small that it is still visible but not as noticeable. Thank you in advance for the replies.
