Mole or naevus is a very common skin abnormality among people all over the world.Generally it is a benign growth,which is harmless and doesn’t require much attention,other than for cosmetic reason.It can be flat or raised above the skin.
Mole can be present in any parts of the body,where there is melanocyte (pigment producing cell).This melanocyte produces melanin,a pigment which gives brown or dark color. Mole occurs due to excess deposition of melanin in some parts of the body.
