Moles are bulgy or flat dark spots on the skin. The moles have concentration of melanin, which cause them to look darker then the rest of the skin.
They are usually oval or round in shape, and appear mostly on the: Chest, back and shoulders.
The moles are genetic, and can appear at any age. The moles are not dangerous as they are but are very sensitive to sun exposure and can become skin cancer (melanoma); therefore a person with moles shouldn't be too exposed to the sun and should examine the moles at a dermatologist every period.
The moles are also not esthetic and permanent; therefore people ask to take them off.
The moles can appear on men and women, and almost everyone has one or two moles on their body.
The moles may appear during the years or in birth, as birth marks.
