I got a mole removed from my face. My doctor stitched and I came back 2 days later to get the stitches removed. he then used dermabond on it. The cut is about 1 cm. 3 days later, I pulled it off by accident (with a bandaid). the would is not fully healed because ti's still pink, but it does not split or bleed. It'll be another 12-16 hours before the doctors office opens. Will it scar?

It should be ok, sound like it is healing well--good tissue is pink.
Pink means good blood flow, good healing. As long as it's not bleeding, you should be fine, as for a scar that depends on the individual. After the area is totally healed, they make ointments to reduce scarring-ask you Doc about it. Oh, one other thing, keep that area clean--you don't want it to get infected, and until it's fully healed that is always a risk. Good Luck
