Time4ADermatologist: Today is Sunday. Tomorrow, call a local dermatologist and have it looked at. Any "mole" that's changing like that needs immediate attention(by 'immediate' I mean within a week or so, ).It's not an emergency but needs to be looked at and probably a sample taken for microscopic examination.Also to look for any similar lesions elsewhere (sometimes they're hidden),and to check your overall health, etc
