What are Skin Growths and Blemishes?
What are skin growths and blemishes?
- Moles – pigmented or non-pigmented protrusions (from neurological irritation or solar exposure)
- Skin tags – pigmented or non-pigmented thin-based protrusions (usually from hormonal imbalance)
- Senile hemangiomas – small to large red “blood blisters” (usually from capillary fragility & damage)
- Keratoses – hard scaly protrusions (many types - age and sun related), occasionally pre-malignant
- Various other skin lesions can be treated as well, upon evaluation and diagnosis by the doctor
- Many moles are congenital (from birth) as birthmarks are – & cancer often starts within them!
