A year ago, I removed my iconic mole. I know if you've followed me for a while, you know how iconic she was. The other day, I did a little bit of an update because I realized it's been over a year since I got her removed, and I had makeup on at the time. I still did an update, but I told you guys I would do an update with no makeup so you can see exactly how she's looking. But this is my scar. As you can see, she kinda looks just like a little scar. Even from a distance, it kinda still looks like a little bit of a beauty mark because it still is, like, there. It's just so flat. Like, the reason I wanted it gone is because it got so big, and there was nothing wrong with it. It came back completely fine. Obviously, go get your skin checked. I have moles all over my body, so I'm constantly having to go to the dermatologist, which is really important. I wanted to document the healing process and I feel like it's healed really well. I wasn't anticipating how a lot of you guys had mentioned you're also wanting to get something removed or you've been debating it and you were really nervous or scared. Obviously, talk to your doctors. I went with the dermatologist. Some people recommended a plastic surgeon, and I'm really happy with the doctor that I went to. I don't regret it. I always was, like, nervous because it just felt like a part of me, and it's obviously my face. And it's really scary, but I I love it. I honestly would do I wish I did it sooner. This is my favorite part, though. Like, look how flat. She was a big girl. But you know what? We love her. So, yeah. I know. Where did the year go? I named my mole Molina. As you guys know, she is gone better not forgotten. Please leave some flowers in the comments for her. She was really there through all the back to school videos, the DIYs. She was my number one.
