I have hundreds of moles all over my body (attached is a picture of my shoulder/upper arm as an example). Most of my moles are flat and do not protrude from the skin. I'd like to have all of them removed without scarring. Cost does not matter. What is the best method to have this done?
2 years ago I was on a beach and didnt put my sunscreen. I got burnt and now I got freckles on my shoulders. I think I had this mole on my back, Im not sure, and I THINK its not changing in shape, but I'm really scared if its a melanoma. It doesnt itch or bleed, its like its not there and its flat. Should I be worried?
I recently had a mole removed on my shoulder (3 months ago) it is healed up but now I feel a round lump right under where the scar is. Is this normal or should I contact my dermatologist? The pathology on the mole came back inconclusive for any cancer but now that this bump has formed it kind of concerns me.
I had a shave biopsy done on a small mole on my shoulder which came back severely atypical, and they are recommending re-excision. I really do not want to have this surgery due to the scar it will leave on my shoulder. My mom actually had a mole in the same exact spot last year and regrets having it re-excised due to the visible scar. I'm 28. Is monitoring a reasonable treatment option?
I had a mole excised a 9 days ago between my shoulder blade and spine on my back. The stitches have been feeling fine and it has been healing well according to my first follow up. I'm now having some soreness in the area that I think is muscle but I'm not sure. A) Should it still be sore after a week and a half and B) does a mole excision go into the muscle tissue? Thank you!
I had a mole removed from my shoulder 10 years ago. It was benign but left scar tissue. The mole is now growing back into the scar. I saw a dermatologist about 1 yr ago and he did not seem concerned about it. It seems to be darker brown, more splotchy since that visit and it is slowly expanding with somewhat jagged edges. It's a little bigger than a pencil eraser, but seems to be confined to the scar tissue. Will be returning to dermatologist soon but wanted to ask about it in the meantime. Thanks!
I'm a 28 year old female mother of 4. Very active and healthy. I have moles all over my body some that are raised and most that are more like freckles. I have a mole on my back shoulder blade and the skin around it doesn't not tan at all. Should I be concerned about it and what would cause that to happen?
I have a mole on my shoulder ever since I can remember. But in the past month it has grown in size and changed colour.I'm 18, have blonde hair, fair skin, freckles and my dad had a melanoma when he was younger. Should I be worried?
