Moles (Nevi)
Moles are small, pigmented spots that can manifest anywhere on the skin. These clusters of pigmented cells are generally harmless. However, it’s essential to monitor them using the ABCDE rule: Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Colour variation, Diameter (larger than 6mm), and Evolving size, shape, or colour. We can have a mole removal service here at Derma Revive
Warts
These are contagious growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can appear anywhere but are most commonly found on hands and feet.
Skin tags
Tiny, known as accordions, are benign out-growths often appearing in areas of skin folds like the neck, armpits, or groin. They’re more of a cosmetic concern than a medical one but can cause problems if they rub.
Seborrheic keratoses
These are often brown or black growths with a waxy and slightly elevated appearance. They’re common with age and are non-cancerous.
Cherry Angiomas
Cherry angiomas are small, bright red bumps that appear on the skin due to the clustering of small blood vessels. Common in adults over 30, they’re usually harmless and don’t require treatment unless for cosmetic reasons.
Lipomas
Lipomas are soft, fatty lumps that form under the skin, often on the neck, shoulders, or back. They’re slow-growing, painless, and typically benign, requiring treatment only if they become bothersome to you
