Question: What would a rare mitotic figure mean on a shave biopspy of a mole that had been picked and traumatized?

The full report says the findings are most consistent with an atypical combined nevus variant displaying nevoid and atypical epitheloid cell components. A rare dermal mitosis is noted in the latter cellular population. The area of scarring is consistent with prior irritation or trauma. Nonetheless, the intradermal component extends to teh base. The lateral edges are uninvolved. Reexcision to ensure complete removal is suggested. Multiple levels have been examined. THe majority of melanocytes within the dermis are arranged as orderly nests and cords with nevocellular features.

The doctor said this is not melanoma, but I am worried. It was a symmetrical raised red bump that resembled a cherry angioma that I picked off and had scabbed over when biopsied.does this sound worrisome to you for melanoma?

The doctor is recommending doing a deeper shave but waiting one month for my skin to heal from the shave biopsy. Would it be better to do a full excision? It seems the report recommends a full excision. Is it safe to wait a month as the doctor recommends? I would prefer to just go ahead and remove it ASAP. Thanks
