i have i red dot on my nose ive has for a few years. The doctor said its some type of mole i guess. My parents want me to get laser sergery. The dot is only less than 1/4 inch. Does laser surgery hurt more than a shot? They say they'll put numbing cream on it, but that never helps completely.

They put a shot in the area around it to numb it, and it didn't really hurt at all. I'm guessing that's what they're going to do for you, except using cream. Then they just burned it off. It was a weird laser thing. I'm not sure if it's the same kind as yours, im sure it isn't but when they were done i didn't feel any pain at all. Even during it i didn't. I was somewhat queazy howver, just because i watched them do it. But i suck at that kinda stuff. ha.. anyways you'll be fine!
