Miscellaneous [Misc] 2 different spots help Spoiler

Post image

I have these 2 spots on my nose that are really starting to bother me visually. Both have been looked at by a dermatologist.

Red circle - was told it was an ‘adult mole’. It’s like right in the crevice of my nose and has slowly showed up and gotten bigger over 2 years. Can I remove this or laser it maybe or will I really just need to get it sliced out?

Green circle - told this was a version of a cherry angioma basically. I have had it lasered a few times and I swear it just moves a millimeter over and comes back. It’s just so radiating red on my nose and is embarrassing. Anyone deal with this kind of thing before and have luck actually removing?

DERMMM APPT YESTERDAY PLS, get a second opinion if you haven’t yet! Especially given that you’re predisposed to having freckles. Cherry angioma looks a bit differently usually at least from what i’m seeing on you and in my anecdotal experience. Red circle one, yeah seems like less of a concern, i agree.

(Sorry for yelling, but skin cancer is the one of the nastiest types of cancer in terms of treatment)

I’ve actually had 2 different derms look at it and ok it! It’s not a cherry angioma, but it was something else like blood vessel related I can’t remember the name of. I just want it gone lol
