Small mole under nipple. Any suggestions? (photo)

Question

Hi, i had BA 7 weeks ago and i just noticed a small uneven mole under my nipple. Might have been there before and i just wasn't paying attention. Is it a problem for removing it? Am afraid the implant will be punctured while doing local anesthesia... Is this something a PS could remove or only a dermatologist? I would hate to have a scar there because of a mole. Thanks in advance for advising.

Mole removal begins with a comprehensive examination and consultation to determine the likelihood of a mole being worrisome. Excisional and incisional biopsies are reserved for suspicious moles. But it’s good news that most moles are not problematic and are only cosmetic, thus leading to the option of scarless or non-surgical mole removal with lasers and RF and plasma. Our office specializes in non-surgical mole removal.

If you are concerned about a mole please have this removed by a cosmetic dermatologist.  Best, Dr. Emer.
