The scar that is left after the surgeon removes the mole? I could not stop itching the darn thing today!

January 9th of this year. I'm sure I'll receive much more answers when I first go to see the dermatologist on Friday. I can then ask about that freckle or mole that is growing on my scar tissue.

My scar itched for about a year, give or take. And part of it was numb, and that feeling took over a year to come back. Just part of the healing process! Lots of nerves were disconnected and removed that had to grow back and such. It might be the same for you.
