About ten years ago, I had a mole on my face examined. They shaved off part of it and it came back benign. Ive had this funky pigmentation left over ever since. Its almost like the leftover of the mole, but its irregularly shaped. Recently, Ive just been nervous that maybe the irregular shape should be concerning?
I had a mole excision done by way of punch and in time pigmentation returned and a bumps along the scar line. A laser was used to get rid of what came back and a month later I still have a dark bump at top right corner and the scar is indented and red. This is on my face and devastating. Do I have any options?
I got laser mole removal last year and it didnt seem to work. When it was first done it was very bruised and was dark for ages and has only started to fade now. However it is very punish in colour and there is still some pigmarnt left underneath. Would it be safe to re laser the area or is there another course of action I could take as I am unhappy with the results
I had a sebhorreic keratosis treated with cryomodulation that made the spot much worse. Now I am looking for methods to remove the damage. Am I better off doing liquid nitrogen, electrodessication, or CO2, etc? Thank you in advance.
About 6 months or so ago I had a mole removed from my nose and biopsied. It was non cancerous thankfully, however I am left with what I believe the derm called a deep pigmentation. The area is completely flat but it is very dark almost like the mole is still there, but it looks like a dark freckle or birth mark. I would really like to get this removed because it bothers me greatly however not sure what the best way to do so is.
I always had a beauty mark on my cheek next to my mouth. I recently noticed a pimple underneath my beauty mark, I popped it and the beauty mark got a scab and started peeling. I tried to let it be and not bother it but it was really difficult. It eventually peeled off. The thickness is still there, it's not bleeding, it's not painful, it hasn't changed in size or shape or anything, just the pigment isn't really there. Will the pigment come back? I've read that it can come back in a month or so.
I had a mole that started itching occasionally so I went to have it checked. The doctor wasn't worried but I had him remove it anyway. He did a shave excision and had it biopsied and the results were negative for any cancer. A couple days after the removal some of the area around the still open wound turned dark brown and has irregular borders. I'm a bit worried. I don't have a before picture but it was round raised mole with no pigmentation outside the round mole.
I had a mole removed on my side under my armpit (right under my bra strap) by a punch biopsy on March 2017 (10 months ago) it came back benign and about 3 months later i had it removed again because some pigment came back, once again by a punch biopsy. This time it was deeper and I got 2 stitches but still came back as benign. Its been 10 months and I still have a what feels like a firm lump on the site of the biopsy. Should I be worried?
I had a shave biopsy done on a mole about two months ago. The mole (as pictured below) was dark in color and had a small black spot in its center. The results showed it was benign. My concern is with the healing at the site of the biopsy - the brown color seems odd to me. I have read that pigmentation can be left behind during a shave biopsy, and I want to see if that's the case here. I have included a picture of the spot after 2 months of healing. Does this look normal? Is there cause for concern?
I had a mole removed about 3 months ago and I had taken pictures one week after and it had pigment left behind while it was healing. I got the call and told the mole was not cancerous so i put it off, now I am seeing pigment pop up and started freaking out if this is normal from a shave biopsy or it was possible melanoma. Here are the photos from a week after the biopsy and now.
