Nevus Simplex
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
A simple nevus, popularly known as a mole, is an accumulation of pigment-producing cells in the skin. Most are benign and very common lesions, which may be present from birth or appear throughout life.
Common characteristics: They are usually of uniform color, with defined borders and a stable size over time.
When is it advisable to have it checked? If a mole changes in size, color, or shape, bleeds, itches, or appears suddenly in adulthood, it is worth having a professional look at it.
Which specialist evaluates it? The dermatologist is the one who examines moles and the health of the skin; in children, the pediatric dermatologist carries out this review, and in particular situations the general surgeon or the oncologist may take part. A timely evaluation of any mole that draws attention provides peace of mind and appropriate follow-up.
