Not all melanomas start from a mole, but all moles are made up of the type of cells that can become melanomas: melanocytes.

I appreciate the effort to make the video, but it explains very little. However, it did lead me to be able to ask more questions, so thank you, as that is the most important part of education.

Is it both environmental and genetic predisposition that creates moles?

@christinebadostain6887 Год назад

I think so

@FromTheClinicToTheLivingroom 9 месяцев назад

The main reasons for moles are: Genetics: Your genes can influence the number of moles you have (see below). Sun exposure: Exposing the skin to the sun can cause moles to develop, particularly in later childhood and adulthood. Immune status: People on immunosuppressants are more likely to develop moles.

What happens when a random mole pops up on your face when you are almost 40? It’s a small mole like a tiny beauty mark

@FromTheClinicToTheLivingroom 9 месяцев назад

You should see a board-certified dermatologist - www.aimatmelanoma.org/melanoma-101/early-detection-of-melanoma/how-to-tell-a-mole-from-melanoma/

I saw a dermatologist. My moles were not cancerous. He wanted $75 to remove 2 moles. I refused the offer. Went home and applied DMSO to the moles every day. After about 3 weeks, they fell off.
