Thank you for your question. Without any background information, it looks like a normal mole. If you have a family history of melanoma I recommend a skin check by a dermatologist once yearly. It would also be a good idea to see a dermatologist at some point to have areas of your body checked that may be difficult for you to monitor. If the mole has enlarged, changed in color, or has any symptoms, I recommend for you to see a dermatologist.

If you want the birthmark removed it can be removed with laser or excision. If you want a new mole on your face you would have to tattoo one, this doesnt look as natural. Best, Dr. Emer.
I suggest a silicone based scar gel with growth factors. Vaseline on top at bedtime. Best, Dr. Emer.
If it was a Laser removal procedure, I would recommend you to avoid make-up for at least 48 hours. However, I would also strongly recommend you to give a quick call to your doctor to confirm this. At this point of time, he/she is the best person to advice you depending on the treated area...
