Nevus, commonly known as moles, are small clusters of pigmented cells that appear on the skin. They can be flat or raised, smooth or rough, and range in color from brown to black.

While most moles are harmless and don’t require treatment, some can develop into skin cancer.

The treatment for nevus depends on various factors like size, location, and appearance. If a mole is determined to be cancerous, it will need to be surgically removed.

However, for non-cancerous moles, treatment options include shaving, laser removal, or excision.

It’s important to monitor moles regularly and consult a plastic surgeon if there are any changes in size, shape, or color, as early detection is crucial for successful treatment.
