I wanted this mole shaved to the surface of my skin on the inside of the bridge of my nose. Instead, the PA removed a lot of it and now there is a large, odd shaped crater. I'm concerned my glasses will rub that area where the depression is. Can I have it revised or filled in? She didn't do what I requested.

For up to 3 months post operatively, you can apply a scar gel . I recommend to my patients, a scar gel called bio-corneum. It has silicone and an spf mixed in the gel. Avoiding sun,tanning, etc will also reduce permanent redness/darkness at scar as well.
