About a month ago i had a mole removed from my cheek (shave excision procedure) and its healed but im left with a pink/redish spot. will this fade?

Yes: Yes. Color should gradually normalize. Sometimes area is permanently lighter. Sometimes hyperpigmented if exposed to sun or in darker individuals.
