Moles (Nevi)

Moles are small, usually harmless spots of dark skin that are caused by clusters of pigment-producing cells

Moles are small spots of usually dark skin that can resemble freckles or dark bumps. They are composed of pigment-producing cells in a cluster. Most adults have as many as 40 moles on their body. Though usually harmless, it is important to monitor the size, shape and color of moles and keep an eye out for changes in their appearance, which can be a sign of a developing melanoma. Patients should perform routine self skin exams and see a dermatologist annually for full-body screenings.
