Skin Mole Removal
Although it is helpful to check the asymmetry, borders, and color of your moles, the majority of bad moles are actually new moles that first appear in adulthood. It is important to be self-aware of any new and changing moles, but only a professional can properly diagnose your moles and provide mole removal. We consider your specific risk factors, such as your family history of skin cancer or melanoma. You can trust Medical Dermatology Specialists to take your skin mole concerns seriously in providing a proactive approach to a mole removal solution that is right for you. A true mole, or nevus, must be removed to prevent a recurrence.
What Causes Skin Moles?
Moles are caused when cells in the skin, called melanocytes, grow in clusters or clumps with tissue surrounding them. Clusters of these pigmented cells commonly appear as small, dark brown spots. Moles can develop on any part of the body, and they can vary in size. Moles can be flat or raised, smoothed or wrinkled. Although most moles are harmless, a professional evaluation is needed to determine any pre-cancerous conditions of a mole.
