Eyebrow mole removal concerns. Should I see a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon?

February 22, 2009
Asked By:Lulu2 in Santa Barbara

Hi Dr. I'm about to turn 21 very soon and have made the decision to have my mole removed. I've had my mole since I was seven. It is located right in between my eyebrows, and is a bit smaller than a pencil's eraser. Because of its location, I am extremely nervous about having it removed, but I feel as though it is now or never. How can I go about finding the right doctor? Should it be a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon? Any important questions I should ask a doctor? Please help!
