What is the Best Way to Remove Pigmentation After Laser Mole Removal?

June 24, 2011
Asked By:Nina0000 in Sydney

I had a number of moles removed 3 months ago from my face. These where raised moles and had some pale brown pigmentation in them. After Laser removal of these moles, they came back heavily pigmented and in one case, larger than the original mole and it seems to be spreading. My cosmetic surgeon advised for me to do more laser treatments or exerision, but told me he cannot guarantee that it will improve. Any advice as to the best way to remove the pigmentation? See before and after photo. Thanks.
