Which procedure is the best for mole removal from the jaw? With minimum to no scarring. I am scared if I get the cut and stitch procedure I might scar since I am easily prone to keloids on my body. Please help.
Answer: Removal of moles from the face Mole removal options are all based on whether a mole is likely benign or malignant. There are many options to remove moles without scars; but in some cases surgery is required when a biopsy is needed. Non-surgical options can minimize scars. Treatment can be performed under local anesthesia in an outpatient setting.

Answer: Big dark face moles have got to go. NOW. Excising the big dark mole is really your best option and getting alittle dermabrasion over the incision at the same time is so helpful.. Any resulting scar is so much better looking than the mole itself so you have nothing to lose.

Answer: Mole removal from cheek You need to see an expert in cosmetic mole removal who is experienced in removing growths from the face. There is always a risk for scar, recurrence, pigment changes (darker/lighter/red) in the area treated, and possible need for additional procedures. But an expert should be able to remove that mole with minimal scarring and an appearance more pleasing than currently. Importantly, my patients find that if the mole area becomes flat, rather than raised, even a small scar is a remarkable improvement overall. Always you need to be diligent about avoiding the sun / proper use of sunblock for about 6 months after removal for the best results. Your mole requires a surgeon, not laser or freezing or any other method if you want the best outcome.

Answer: Facial mole removal Hi thank you for your question. Its natural to be concerned about scarring with lesions on the face. If its longstanding and hasn't changed in anyway it might be possible to shave it off. If there has been any change, formal excision might be best. Either way I believe the lesion should be sent for analysis once removed (which is not possible with laser removal).I suggest you visit a plastic surgeon with interest in skin lesions for a consultation and examination.Best wishes
