Answer 2

The only true way to tell if a mole has changed cell type and has become malignant is to biopsy it.  Signs it should be biopsied are pretty simple:

A - asymmetry.  is it round or some other shape?  smooth and flat or raised?  irregular shapes and surfaces imply changes to cell typia.

B - borders.  does it have irregular borders?  irregular borders imply cell type changes and spreading.

C - color.  Is it black or dark brown.  While moles come in all colors, black or dark brown coloration or mixed colors are noteworthy.

D - diameter.  is it larger than 5mm?  Benign moles can be as large as 10mm, but any mole over 5mm should be eval'd with other criteria for changes.

E - exposure.  Is it in a sun exposed area?  Moles that change and can be worrisome more often occur in sun exposed areas of the body, but even in non-exposed areas can have mole changes.

If it is concerning to you, then think about the above criteria... if it still concerning and you would be more comfortable having it removed, talk with your doctor or dermatologist.  it is a pretty easy procedure to take it off.

Hope that helps.  Peace
