Different Moles and Treatment or Removal

moles

Moles, or nevi, are usually harmless skin growth. They can vary in size, shape, and color. Types include:

  • Common moles: Small, brown, and usually round, requiring no treatment.
  • Atypical moles: Irregular in shape and color, these may require monitoring or removal due to a higher risk of melanoma.
  • Dysplastic nevi: Larger moles that can be asymmetrical and have uneven borders. Surgical removal is often recommended for biopsy and to rule out cancer.

Regular skin checks by a Dermatologist are essential for monitoring changes in moles and skin conditions.
