Any recommendations for dermatologists or cosmetic surgeons for mole removal?

I have a LOT of moles peppering my face, like at least 50 when I counted them individually. Never wore sunscreen in my life until just last year so I'm guessing that may be a large contributing factor.
Anyone able to recommend a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon that's able to remove moles with minimal scarring? I have 3 that are fairly large and bumpy, and rather unsightly tbh. And rest are mostly flat that I'll probably ignore if the procedure is prohibitively expensive for me.

You’re gonna want to make sure they’re just moles and not anything worse….

I probably should have mentioned that I had a skin screening at the tail end of 2023 at one of the U.S. Dermatology Partners locations. This was back when I lived in East Texas though.
They're all benign growths. My insurance pays for an annual routine screening so I'll definitely do one again before any elective procedures.

North Star dermatology in north Richland hills is amazing.

I would go see a dermatologist so they can do a skin check on you. And just be aware that anything that you get taken off will leave a scar in its place.

Yes, for sure. My last screening was in 2023 but I definitely plan on doing one again this year.
I think a cosmetic surgeon might give better results but I'm still very much just exploring what options are out there.
