OUCH!!!! No shaving for me for a while, mole is a lot smaller
« on: September 29, 2011, 07:02:03 AM »
Ok, so you know I had a mole on my temple removed right after I started shaving. I also had a larger flatter mole on the direct center of the back of my head I left alone because (at that time) I'd been shaving about 6 weeks without any problem. Well, that ended yesterday when I was shaving and my wife came in and said "OH MY GOD YOUR BLEEDING BADLY!!".  I grabbed my hand mirror and saw I had shaved about 30% of my mole off. It took an hour to stop bleeding. I know the scalp is very vascular but damn!  Anyway, I have a bandaid on it and it doesn't hurt, never did, sharp new razor. 

The question is for all your mole-shavers, how long should I wait to shave that area again? I am thinking about a week, I should have a good growth by then, I won't leave the house until I shave again.... :) LOL. 

I also wonder if I should go to my dermatologist to have the rest of it professionally removed.  Suggestions appreciated.

hey daven:

1st of all hope U heal quickly.  i would definitely clean the "cut" with mild soap&water, pat dry, & apply antibiotic ointment such as neosporin daily and leave it open to air to allow air to the site so it heals quicker.

2nd... i had a mole on the top of my dome that was cut from head shaving.  however; it didn't stop me from shaving because my beautiful wifey shaved my noggin and around the cut area.  i got an appointment with a dermatologist and he removed my mole and never had a mole incident since.  so... yes 2 getting a dermatologist appt.

hope this helps and keep us posted.

I go to my dermo doc once a year and have calculated that he makes $800 per hour, but he has a lot of overhead. I vote for the dermo doc!
