Remove Moles Painlessly

Although moles are usually harmless, they can turn into the most dangerous form of skin cancer: melanoma.

Melanoma develops when melanocytes start to grow out of control. As a result, cells in nearly any part of the body can become cancer, and can spread to other areas of the body.

Melanoma is much less common than some other types of skin cancer. Melanoma is more dangerous because it’s much more likely to spread to other parts of the body if not caught and treated early.

Dr. Fakhouri performs full body skin checks and if there is concern a biopsy may be performed.

What Are The Different Types Of Moles?

There are two main types of moles as follows:

  • Common moles are benign non-cancerous growths that do not spread or grow deeper into the skin.
  • Atypical moles, on the other hand, have a slightly higher risk of melanoma. It’s important to have any new or changing moles checked out by a dermatologist right away

Moles are also classified by their location on the body.

Common types include:

  • Congenital Nevi: These are moles that are present at birth or develop during the first few years of life.
  • Dysplastic Nevi: Dysplastic nevi are larger than average moles and have an irregular shape with a ragged border. They are more likely to develop into melanoma.
  • Acquired Mole: Acquired nevi are moles that develop after birth. Most people have between 10 and 40 of these moles.
  • Spitz Nevus: Spitz nevi are pink raised moles that have a dome shaped. They usually develop in children and young adults.

Why Customers Love Skin Cancer Specialists
"I loved seeing Dr. Fakhouri at Advanced Dermatology and am very pleased with my results. He removed a mole on my chin and due to the difficult location I was concerned with scaring. He made me feel at ease with the procedure and walked me through every step. His staff is also awesome! Every nurse I saw was kind and informative by taking their time going over instructions post surgery. Dr. Fakhouri was also on time to all my appointments. Love that! Would recommend to family and friends."

"Very nice clean and modern office. Everything about their systems and even checkin is smooth and intuitive. Both the NP (or PA? She told me but I forgot) and Dr Fakhouri were very kind and friendly, listened to all my concerns and made me feel comfortable despite freaking myself out after googling about a suspicious mole (I know, I know lol) it turned out to be nothing but I'm glad I had it checked out."
