A member asked:
Can a mole have different shade of brown but without that a melanoma , only benign?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but I recommend consulting a dermatologist for any skin lesion that stands out from others on your body. This will give you peace of mind also instead of staring at it all the time.
