This how my mole looks after it was shaved. I'm not happy for the fact that is a little raised. I've been taking care of it very well, she asked I use silicone scar sheets. It has been raised since it was shaved off. I am not sure if she did a good job. It has been about a month I will consult this with her when I see her. She said surgery would leave a bad scarring and shaving it off would be my best choice. Any comments?
