Mole: Once a nevus or mole is surgically removed with clear margins it should not return. A dermatologist will be able to evaluate and treat.

Consider no Rx: Nowadays, men with a becker's who want to be treated usually opt for laser rx instead. You may also want to consider leaving it alone. You may meet someone special who likes it, and there are a couple of hollywood stars who have them and actually show them off. It's not going to turn into cancer suddenly or make anyone else sick. It's entirely your call; make an informed choice.
