Have it checked!: If you are worried have it checked. See a board certified dermatologist and get it looked at. Most moles evolve (in color and size) and this can occur during puberty, pregnancy or other conditions where there is hormone changes. However, some people are at a higher risk (skin color, history of sunburns, family history of melanoma, dysplastic nevus syndrome). Go to website www.Skincancer.Org.

Red mole: A red skin lesion could be a mole, a type of melanoma (amelanototic) , or hemangioma ( collection of blood vessels) among many other possibilities. See a dermatologist for evaluation.
