What causes small black moles on the face?

Some girls who love beauty often apply some skin care products and concealer to ensure their appearance and smooth and delicate skin. However, concealer can cover freckles but cannot cover small black moles on the face. This makes many beauty lovers feel very troubled. So, how do small black moles come about? What is the reason for small black moles on the face? Next, let me explain to you the relevant knowledge in this regard.

Black moles are very common, almost everyone has one, and most people have more than one. Based on the different locations where nevus cells gather, they are histopathologically divided into junctional nevus (in the epidermis), intradermal nevus (in the dermis) and compound nevus (in the epidermis and dermis). Generally, junctional nevus are more active and prone to malignant transformation.

Normal pigmented moles go through a process of occurrence, development and regression. They usually occur in childhood, reach a peak in young and middle-aged people, and tend to disappear in old age. Most pigmented moles are benign and harmless. However, a few moles may become malignant. It is generally believed that moles are prone to malignant transformation in the following situations: (1) moles occurring in exposed areas, areas prone to friction, perineum and lower limbs; (2) moles with irregular and asymmetrical shapes; (3) moles with disorderly pigment distribution; (4) moles larger than 5 mm and gradually increasing in size; (5) moles become itchy and ulcerated. If the above situations are found, surgical excision should be performed and pathological examination should be performed. Destructive treatments such as laser and freezing should not be used.

Moles are formed by the aggregation of melanocytes located at the junction of the epidermis and dermis. Depending on the number of mole cells, they can be higher than the skin surface, level with the skin, of different sizes and locations, and can grow first and then later. There is a saying among the people that there are mother and child moles, but this is actually without scientific basis.

Through the editor’s introduction to small black moles on the face in the above article, I believe everyone has understood what is going on. From the above, we can see that small black moles on the face are not a serious disease and will not affect your health, so you don’t need to worry. Of course, if you don’t like these moles, you can go to a plastic surgery hospital to have them removed.
