I had a mole removed on my nose 1 month ago via shave excision, can a plastic surgeon fix my scar? (Photos)

Asked By:maromar in San Francisco, CA

I had a mole removed last month and despite putting vaseline on it every day it doesn't look like the skin is going to fill in. Should I wait to go see a plastic surgeon or can I go now to get resutured? Is there a better option for me. I had a rhinoplasty done last year, not sure if that can affect the healing process.
