Is it okay to have moles on your face?

Moles can appear anywhere on our body and cannot be controlled. Generally speaking, if moles appear in places that can be covered by clothes, they will not cause any impact. So, is it good to have moles on your face? In fact, moles are very small and do not exist over a large area, so if they do not affect the appearance, you don’t need to worry about it, let alone whether it will affect your fortune.

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. Generally speaking, moles are harmless to humans, but moles growing on special parts such as the palms, soles of feet, and lips require attention. Because these parts are prone to friction, moles may become malignant and develop into malignant melanoma. Therefore, it is recommended that moles growing in special parts should be removed in a timely manner. This operation can be performed in an outpatient clinic. After the operation, it is best to make a pathological section of the removed part to observe whether there are any changes, whether it has been cut cleanly, and whether it is benign or malignant.

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.

Everyone has more or less "moles" on their bodies. The "moles" here mostly refer to blue moles and pigmented moles. Blue nevi are more common in women and often occur in childhood. They are prone to occur on the face and extensor surfaces of the limbs, especially the backs of the hands and feet, as well as the waist and buttocks. They are occasionally seen in the conjunctiva, oral cavity, cervix, etc. 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.
