Brief Answer:
Simple benign growth. Get it removed by radio frequency ablation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome back and thanks for posting your pictures.
After analyzing the pictures I can make out a benign structure of the skin.

If I were your treating doctor then would have either excised or removed the area with radio frequency ablation.

I suggest you to meet a dermatologist and get it removed by one of the procedures.

I hope this helps.

With regards,
