Moles
A mole is a growth on the skin. Most moles are benign, but they can turn cancerous.
People can be born with moles, or they can develop moles over the course of their lives. It’s important to be aware of what moles you have and where they are located.
Although you don’t generally need to worry about moles, any changes in the mole’s appearance should be brought to the attention of your dermatologist at Dallas Associated Dermatologists. In particular, look for changes in color and/or size.
Sometimes moles can occur in areas of the body that negatively impact appearance or self-esteem, such as on the face. Mole removal is available, even when the mole poses no health risk.
Have a suspicious-looking mole? Our skilled dermatologists can screen the mole and your skin for malignancy concerns and discuss removal options.
Our Approach
At Cosmetic Dermatology of Orange County, we provide expert evaluation and treatment for moles, also known as nevi. Moles are common skin growths that vary in color, size, and shape. While most are harmless, changes in appearance or new growths may indicate a need for further examination. Our board-certified dermatologists use advanced diagnostic tools, including dermoscopy, to closely examine moles and determine whether they are benign or require biopsy or removal.
We understand that moles can be both a medical concern and a cosmetic issue. Whether you’re monitoring a suspicious mole for signs of skin cancer or seeking removal for aesthetic reasons, our team ensures a careful, customized approach. If removal is recommended, we offer precise, minimally invasive techniques that minimize scarring and support clear, healthy skin.
Routine skin checks are an essential part of early detection and skin cancer prevention, especially for individuals with a personal or family history of melanoma. At CDOC in Anaheim Hills, we prioritize your long-term skin health while addressing cosmetic concerns with care and expertise.
If you’ve noticed changes in a mole or simply want peace of mind, schedule a skin exam with our experienced dermatology team today. Early evaluation is key to protecting your skin.
