Bulbous/cauliflower mole on the back of my head - Can it be removed? (Photo)

May 22, 2016
Asked By:Agouri in Greece, GR

I cut my hair extremely short today as I'm balding and it was a matter of time. As I was cutting it, I revealed a large mole - pic related, it's bulbous. It is quite large in size and it's bleeding, possibly nicked it while buzzcutting. Is there any reason for immediate concern? Moreover, is it removable? I'd hate this to be a regular problem while cutting my hair, and cosmetically, it isn't very nice.
