Why do I have moles on my face?

If you keep getting moles on your face, you should go for a skin check, so that the effect will be better. In fact, this is a kind of mole, but you must not use laser to treat it, because this treatment method is very harmful to the surface of your skin, and it only treats the symptoms and not the root cause. After treatment, it will recur again, which will be more troublesome.

Moles are medically called "pigmented nevi". They are benign tumors of the skin that are differentiated from nerve cells. People of different ages and genders may develop moles. For moles on the back of the neck, considering that they may become malignant due to friction, it is best to see a dermatologist to decide whether surgery is needed. Except for moles in special parts of the body, moles in other parts of the body are generally divided into intradermal nevus, junctional nevus, and mixed nevus.

Intradermal nevus is more common, usually protruding from the surface of the skin, relatively large and round, mostly black, and may also have hair on it. This type of nevus is a safe nevus and generally does not require treatment.

Junctional nevus usually appears at the junction of the epidermis and dermis. It does not feel higher than the skin surface, is generally hairless, and is relatively dark. If this type of mole has damage around it, feels painful, bleeds, or has satellite lesions around it, it indicates that it has become malignant and should be removed promptly.

In addition, it is important to remind you not to blindly use methods such as laser or mole removal drugs to remove moles. Because if the laser is not done well, the mole may appear to be clean on the surface, but in fact it cannot be completely eliminated; repeated laser treatment may put the mole at risk of worsening. The method of using drugs to remove moles is not thorough, and repeated stimulation may also lead to malignant transformation.

Almost everyone has pigmented moles, the only difference is the number. It often occurs in children or adolescence and may appear as macules, papules, warts or nodules and may occur in any part of the body. The color is usually yellow, brown or black, but can also be blue or purple. There are three types:

Blue nevi and pigmented nevi generally do not require treatment. If they affect the appearance of the face, or occur in areas prone to friction such as the palms, armpits, and shoulders, or if they suddenly increase in size, become more pigmented, or become itchy and painful, they should be removed surgically or treated with laser therapy as soon as possible rather than using the "dot" method, i.e., condensation and corrosive drugs, which may prevent the complete elimination of nevus cells.
