Need clarification between minor surgery without patient or procedural risk factors (LOW risk) and minor surgery with identified risk factors (MOD risk)?

Would standard risk factors count as moderate? Ie. Shave skin biopsy risk of bleeding, scarring and infection. Or would the identified risk factors need to be beyond that, Ie. Location of the lesion near the eye making it riskier or patient his on blood thinners?
