Moles do not necessarily need to be removed, but usually need to be removed for aesthetic reasons, if the mole has a tendency to become malignant, or if it grows in an area prone to lesions.
Moles are called pigmented nevi and are a common skin growth, mostly benign. Benign nevi have no effect on the body, but nevi that grow on the face, especially on the cheeks and around the mouth, may affect aesthetics and can be removed by a dermatologist at a hospital.
Pigmented moles often have some symptoms when they start to become malignant, such as becoming larger in size and darker in color within a short period of time, redness around the mole, or pain and other discomforts. In this case, it is necessary to remove the mole in time and do a pathologic examination to determine whether there is any malignant transformation.
Pigmented moles that grow on the palms of the hands, the palms of the feet, and parts of the genitals or armpits that are susceptible to friction and irritation need to be cut out in time to avoid the risk of lesions.
If necessary, go to the hospital to determine whether it needs to be removed under the guidance of the doctor.
