Dysplastic Mole Treatment
Dysplastic Mole Treatment
Dysplastic nevi are moles that show abnormal cellular structure and appearance, differing from normal moles. These types of moles can cause changes in the skin and may sometimes have the potential to develop into skin cancers such as melanoma. The diagnosis of dysplastic nevi can be made through examination by dermatologists and, if necessary, biopsy. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial in preventing serious complications.
Causes of Dysplastic Nevi
-
Genetic Factors: Individuals with a family history of dysplastic nevi or melanoma are at higher risk for the development of these types of moles.
-
Sun Exposure: Prolonged exposure to UV light can play a role in the development of dysplastic nevi. Not using sunscreen or excessive sunbathing increases the risk.
-
Skin Type: Individuals with fair skin and freckles are more prone to developing dysplastic nevi.
Treatment Options
The treatment methods for dysplastic nevi can vary based on the size, location, and content of the mole:
-
Surgical Intervention: The most common treatment method for dysplastic nevi is surgical removal. This procedure is performed along with the surrounding healthy skin, thereby minimizing the risk of cancer cell spread.
-
Biopsy: A biopsy may be performed before or after surgery for pathological examination of the mole. This is necessary to determine the mole's content and any potential cancer cells.
-
Regular Monitoring: In some cases, dysplastic nevi may be monitored. Dermatologists can track changes in the mole and update the treatment plan as needed.
-
Sun Protection: It is important to use sunscreen after treatment or in the presence of dysplastic nevi. Taking protective measures against UV rays can help prevent the formation of new moles.
