They’re all flat and numerous on my face,about 25 on my face alone. They are a cause of great sorrow for me. Is there any way to remove them? All of them on my face aren’t raised and are small in size. I have more moles on my chest about 7 larger ones.

How can I remove them seamlessly? I am 16 years of age,

My husband has a mole that looks completely fine, but he has been having small chest pains/tingles right where the mole is. Is that a sign of there being a problem?

I had a flat black mole on my back. I could not feel any texture or raising with my finger. Others who felt it told me that they could not feel any texture or raising.

I recently had it removed and sent in for biopsy. I believe I had a shave biopsy from reading descriptions on the internet. However, they all say shave biopsies are only done on raised moles. So you tell me…

The doctor injected some type of numbing agent into the mole and then removed it somehow. I got no stitches and have a round, caved in wound slightly larger than the original mole. If looks like he simply cut the mole from the top layer of my skin, but like I said, no stiches.

Can anyone tell me what type of biopsy this was? AND if it was a shave biopsy, does that mean my mole was actually raised??

A knowledgable, serious answer will quickly be selected as best answer and many kudos given.

Thanks
In response to my first answer…it does matter to me, because from what I gather on the internet if you have superficial spreading melanoma it general starts to raise or develop nodules when it becomes invasive. Is that incorrect?

i have 4 small, SLIGHTLY raised moles on my face. (im getting 1 removed though.) is it ugly?
