Angiofibroma on nose - scarring risk. (photos)

October 31, 2016
Asked By:Ana363 in Nevada City, CA

Hello, I have a small fibrous papule on the center of my nose and it's very bothersome. My dermatologist did a shave biopsy and a shave excision and that didn't seem to help. My derm said it was vascular,and a co2 laser would be my best choice. However, in her facility there wasn't a co2 laser, so she referred me to a specialist. The specialist told me the laser would leave a dent/visible scar on my nose, which was no help because it's very bothersome. Is there anything else I can do?
