Thank You Dr. Li!
As long as I can remember, I’ve had a black mole on my face right between my nose and mouth along the smile line. It started off small when I was small, but grew as I grew. As a child I smiled a lot thinking it wouldn’t be so visible. In high school, I actually wished it was cancerous so I would have a reason to remove it. As an adult, I spoke to my dermatologist (don’t know why, but didn’t consider plastic surgery at that time). He said the mole was benign, but if it was to be removed, there would be a horizontal triangular wedge-shaped scar. Black circle or white triangle? I decided to hold off. The year 2020 came and Covid-19 hit. When I realized that I ENJOYED wearing masks because it hid my mole from public view, I decided it was time to talk to a plastic surgeon.
After looking at numerous yelp and google reviews, I decided to contact Dr. Li. My type of surgery is quite minor compared to others, but it didn’t make a difference. He listened patiently to my story, took a look, and drew lines on my skin to show me exactly where the incision would be made. He would line the scar up with my smile line so it would naturally hide in the shadow. He was professional, kind, and confident that we could get the results that I wanted. I scheduled the appointment before I lost my nerve. That was August.
In September, I went to his new location in Cupertino to have the surgery. It took about an hour. Dr. Li told me exactly what he was doing and answered any questions that came up during the procedure. There were three follow up appointments. During that time, I had a couple of questions regarding bruising and stitches. I would text Angela and send her a picture. She would consult with Dr. Li and provide a quick response. Like Dr. Li, Angela is extremely professional, kind, and caring.
The scar was pretty red at first which is completely normal. The redness diminished as the weeks went by, and the scar will continue to get thinner as the months go by. One year from the surgery, the scar will be done changing.
I've been told a picture is worth a thousand words. The post surgery picture was taken two months after the surgery.
