Will I have a bald spot after I have mole removed from my head?

Asked By:Curious_1986 in Scottsdale, AZ

I have a mole in my hair that I would like to have removed because it is pretty big. I am a guy and I keep my hair pretty short. Is there a way that the wound can be stitched closed more tightly in a way that doesn't result in a bald spot? If so, is there a certain kind of dermatologist that I should see for this type of thing?
