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).

Is it dangerous to remove a mole?

Answered by a doctor

I have one big mole on my neck. I think it’s ugly and I would like to remove it permanently. But I heard a lot of stories about mole removal. Is it dangerous to remove a mole? What age I need to be before this can be done? I’m 16 years old now.

Mole fell off?
