Moles-Skin Growths

Moles are common skin lesions formed by the growth of melanocytes. They usually appear during childhood and adolescence, but may develop later.

Melanoma is one of the most dangerous forms of skin cancer, resulting from the uncontrolled growth of melanocytes, the cells that produce melanin.

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) is the most common type of skin cancer, which develops from the basal cells of the epidermis. It usually occurs on areas of the skin exposed to the sun, such as the face, neck and hands.

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a type of skin cancer that develops in the cells of the epidermis and often occurs in areas that are frequently exposed to the sun, such as the face, ears, neck and hands.

Actinic keratosis is a precancerous skin lesion caused by long-term exposure to the sun. It most often appears on areas such as the face, hands and scalp, in the form of rough, dry or scaly patches.
