Biopsy On Mole Showing Abnormal And Benign. White Bump Near The Scar After Mole Removal. Should I Be Worried?

I had a mole biopsied back in April (3 months ago) that came back abnormal but benign. They went back in and removed more skin and I received stitches. About a month ago, I noticed a very tiny white bump appear right in the middle of my scar . It looked similar to a white head, and I tried to pop it, but I couldn t get anything to happen. Is this something I should worry about?
