Will my moles be completely gone after electrocautery? (Photo)

serinadh
i had 6 moles (5 flat 1 raised) removed from my face from electrocautery. the raised one was done the 2nd time cos it came back (7 weeks from 1st one). and they look like the picture now. should they be looking like that? i was told they would fall off after 7 days. any tips i could use? kinda worrying cos they're so burnt. i just apply the cream given 3 times a day. plus foundation to cover them up before i head out. thanks!
