Removing a Black Spot After a Mole Removal

User Avatar

I had a non cancerous mole removed on my nose 2 to 3 years ago. The dermatologist cut it off and at first, it was a light spot almost blending in with my skin but then it turned back to being black. Now it seems I have the same black mole on my nose, its just that it's no longer raised. Is there any way I can get that removed? Should i go to a dermatologist or plastic surgeon?
