Which Specialist Doctor Should Be Consulted For A Skin Growth On The Head?

Having endured Mohs surgeries over the years in the face, head and back (and pretty much anything exposed while growing up in Santa Barbara) but particularly on the head (recently). Have a somewhat new development that is actually growing and looks very much like slash with swelling but getting larger by the month. Whom shall I consult?
