What can happen to moles during pregnancy 🥼

During pregnancy, hormonal changes can affect the skin, including moles. Some moles may darken, grow slightly, or change in shape. In most cases, these changes are harmless.

However, any mole that grows rapidly, becomes irregular, bleeds, or itches should be checked by a professional. Monitoring your moles during pregnancy helps ensure they stay healthy.

Seborrhoeic keratosis is a very common benign skin lesion that often appears as a brown, rough, or “stuck-on” patch on the skin.

Although harmless, these lesions can sometimes become irritated, catch on clothing, or simply be a cosmetic concern.

Treatment usually involves a simple removal procedure after careful assessment, helping restore smoother, clearer skin.

Melanoma at the first stage is not a death sentence

Hearing the word Melanoma can feel frightening. However, when melanoma is detected at an early stage, outcomes are often very good.

At Stage 0 or Stage 1, the lesion is usually still confined to the skin. In many cases, surgical removal is enough, and patients go on to live normal lives without further problems.

This is exactly why early detection matters so much. Regular skin checks and attention to changing moles can make a real difference.

Melanoma is serious, but caught early, it is very treatable.

This is a basal cell carcinoma (BCC) removed from the upper arm.

BCC is the most common type of skin cancer. It usually develops from long-term sun exposure and often appears as a slowly growing spot that doesn’t heal, a pearly bump, or a patch that changes over time.
Early diagnosis makes treatment straightforward and highly effective.

Removal helps prevent further growth and protects the surrounding healthy tissue.
After any skin cancer treatment, regular skin checks and sun protection are essential to reduce the risk of new lesions.
If you notice a new, changing, or non-healing mark on your skin, it’s always worth having it assessed.

The most common skin conditions 🩺

Many people notice skin changes over time, and most of them are completely benign.

Dermatofibromas are firm little nodules, often appearing after minor skin trauma.

Seborrhoeic keratoses are common age-related growths with a waxy or rough surface.

Lipomas are soft fatty lumps that grow slowly under the skin, while warts are viral growths that can spread through contact.

Even though these conditions are usually harmless, any lesion that changes, becomes painful, or causes concern should always be checked.

Pedunculated seborrhoeic keratosis🩺

This is a common, harmless skin growth that sits on a small stalk. It often looks raised or rough and can catch on clothing or jewellery, which is usually what brings people in.

Although it isn’t dangerous, it can become sore, irritated, or bleed from rubbing. Removal is often done for comfort or to be sure of the diagnosis after assessment.

In this case, three lesions were removed as they were the largest and most symptomatic. The incisions were kept as small as safely possible while allowing complete removal of each lipoma. The wounds were closed using absorbable (dissolving) sutures.

Lipoma Removal on the Shoulder 🩺💉

A lipoma is a soft, harmless fatty lump that grows slowly under the skin. On the shoulder, it often becomes noticeable because it can rub on clothing or affect comfort.

Removal is simple. After local anaesthetic, a small incision is made, the lipoma is separated from surrounding tissue, and the whole capsule is lifted out.
Stitches close the area, and healing takes about one to two weeks.

Recovery is usually easy. Mild soreness or bruising can appear for a few days, and avoiding heavy shoulder activity helps the wound heal. Most people return to normal routines within 24-48 hours. If the capsule is fully removed, the lipoma rarely returns.

An ultrasound may be advised if the lump sits deeper.
If you’ve found a soft, mobile lump on your shoulder, an examination can confirm it’s a lipoma and whether removal is the right choice.

Dermatofibroma: What You Need to Know

A dermatofibroma is a common, benign skin growth that usually appears as a small, firm bump on the arms or legs. It often develops after minor skin trauma, insect bites, or inflammation.

These growths are harmless and usually don’t require treatment unless they cause irritation or cosmetic concern. They can feel firm or slightly raised, and sometimes dimples when pinched.

Treatment options are limited to removal if necessary, typically via excision. Laser or topical treatments are generally ineffective.

This procedure is for the removal of a dermatofibroma.
Dermatofibromas are benign (non-cancerous) skin growths that most commonly appear on the arms and legs, although they can develop on other parts of the body. They often form after minor skin trauma, such as an insect bite. While they are harmless, many people choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons.

3 More Signs a Scar May Be a Keloid

▫️It becomes darker or redder instead of fading
Normal scars usually lighten with time. Keloids often remain deep red, purple, or darker than the surrounding skin and may even become more noticeable months after healing.

▫️It feels unusually thick or rubbery
When you touch it, a keloid often feels firm, dense, or rubber-like rather than soft and flexible like a typical mature scar.

▫️ It appeared after very minor trauma
Keloids can develop from something as small as a pimple, piercing, insect bite, or vaccination. When a large, aggressive scar forms from a tiny injury, this strongly suggests keloid scarring.
