Got Moles on Your Skin?
Signs of a harmless mole
- Most harmless moles are round or oval-shaped, with a smooth edge.
- They can be flat or raised and may feel smooth or rough.
- Sometimes they have hair growing from them.
- They are usually darker on brown and black skin.
When moles are normal:
- Babies born with moles.
- New moles appearing – especially in children and teenagers.
- Moles fading or disappearing as you get older.
- Moles that get slightly darker during pregnancy.
When a mole could be a sign of something suspect
- When they change color over time or have in excess of two colors.
- When they have uneven edges.
- When they may bleed, itch or be crusty or raised.
- When there is a new or unusual mark on the skin and is still there after a few weeks.
If you are concerned, always get a checkup by a medical practitioner or dermatologist who will refer you to a specialist for special treatment.
How to tackle moles when they are benign or harmless
- The most common method is surgical removal which involves cutting out the mole followed by stitching the skin closed.
- Another method is shaving. This involves the practitioner using a scalpel to shave off the mole at skin level.
- A third method is freezing, using liquid nitrogen to freeze the mole.
The method used will depend on the size, location and type of mole being removed.
