Hi so I'm an 18 year old student, and since I was 4 I had this small mole on my nose which slowly grew huge as I got older... I've always been insecure about it and I've now decided I want it removed this summer break next year... What would be the procedures to remove the mole on my nose? How much will it cost and do you think in 2 months whatever scar is left, will have faded a bit?

This should be shaved all the way down, at least that is how i do it in my practice. I suggest seeing your physician and asking about his/her long term plan. Best, Dr. Emer.
Moles will regrow if you decide to partially remove them. If you are concerned please have it completely removed by a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer.
There are risks to performing at-home treatments. At this point, I would use Ceralase creams to the wound followed by twice daily application of Plato's Scar Serum and pulsed dye laser once the skin heals over. Best, DR. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
