Overview

Moles are common skin growths that can appear anywhere on the body. Typically brown or black, they are composed of clusters of melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing pigment. Most moles develop during childhood and adolescence, though new ones can form throughout life. While generally harmless, moles should be regularly monitored for changes in size, shape, or color, as these can indicate potential skin health issues, including melanoma. At Seaside Dermatology, we provide thorough evaluations to ensure your moles are benign.
