Probably not: But he should have any new mole checked out. There are a lot of moles that are not dangerous that appear on our skin as we age. But it takes a doctors evaluation to make sure it is not something more serious.

Every mole NEWLY: discovered should be evaluated by a Health Care Professional, Lack of "growth" is NOT sufficient! Hope this helps! Dr Z
