Is this mole one to be concerned about? (Photo)

Mommyneedshelp1
I’m Persian with Olive skin, so maybe naively assumed I can’t have melanoma. I have this mole on my back (my mom had a similar one, and I have several moles on my body), and it has definitely grown through the years. Does this look like something I should be worried about? I’m scheduling a removal.
