A member asked:
The scar from my mole removal exactly a year ago hasn't faded, should i be worried? how do i fade it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Moles frequently: recur unless they were cut out down to fatty layer and stitched. I frequently laser moles after shaving off to destroy deep pigment. But when you cut the skin you can also get a scar. you can use lasers to clear the scar or topical growth factors to help, see derm to determine treatment options
