I have a mole on my scalp that is pink and mushroom shaped. What can I do? (Photo)

This benign appearing mole can be easily excised using local anesthesia in most plastic surgery offices.  Any mass however, should be evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist prior to removal.  

Thank you for your question. Moles can come in a variety shapes, sizes, and colors. If moles are benign (non-cancerous) or have no irregularities, then generally, they are left alone. However, if there are any concerning features when moles are evaluated, then they should be removed and examined further to determine if the moles warrant further treatment. I recommend you consult with a dermatologist to evaluate your mole and discuss treatment options. Take care and good luck.
