Skin Growths and Pigment Disorders

Most skin growths are harmless but need to be monitored for any changes that might indicate abnormal cell division. This forum is the place to talk about non-cancerous skin growths (dermatofibromas, dermoid cyst, freckles, keloids, keratoacanthomas, lipomas, moles, seborrheic keratoses, skin tags) and pigment disorders (albinism, vitiligo, melasma, pigment loss after skin damage).
