Can I get a 5mm mole excision under breast the same time as a breast lift? Would it be safe for pathology? (Photo)

jnay
Just got a call from my derm stating that the mole she removed under my right breast is a collision lesion with spitzoid features. Path says it is likely benign but bc they don't know for sure, my derm wants me to get 5mm excised immed. As it is underneath my breast, would it be safe to get it excised while coupling the procedure with a breast lift and possibly new implants? (just had implants put in 3 years ago) Or would it be better to have it excised and then get the lift on a later date??
