Mole Removal Skin Care
Common Features of Skin Tags and Moles
Skin tags show the following characteristics:- They are soft flaps of tissue connected to the skin by a narrow stem.
- Most skin tags are benign, but they may get entangled in clothing or jewelry and cause pain.
- They usually occur in skin areas subject to greater friction such as the neck, folds of the breast, the armpits, the groin region, and the eyelids.
- They occur more often in childhood.
- They may form on any body part, but are more common on parts exposed to the sun.
- Most moles are raised above the skin surface and are either skin colored or pigmented.
- Any mole which changes in shape, size, or color or begins to hurt, itch, or ooze blood or other liquids is likely to be dangerous.
