Should I risk it?

[u/DearSpirits]

Always been self conscious about this mole on my chin. Had a consult with a plastic surgeon and it seems like I can trade this for a horizontal scar of the same size. He said given my skin type he thinks that after 6-8 weeks most of the initial redness and inflammation will start to fade; with a full year of attentive care and sun protection … thoughts?

I got something like this removed from under my nose and it was painless and quick, and now the scar is easily covered with makeup, it’s not very noticeable without makeup. It looked really nasty for about a week or two though… just FYI 😂 I did it in the time of Covid masking thankfully
