Melanoma is a serious and potentially life-threatening form of skin cancer that develops from melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells responsible for skin color. It often appears as a new mole or a change in an existing mole, typically characterized by irregular shapes, multiple colors, or an increase in size.

 

Risk factors include excessive sun exposure, a history of sunburns, and genetic predisposition. Melanoma can spread to other parts of the body if not detected early, making prompt diagnosis crucial.

 

At MoleAware, we specialize in thorough skin assessments and mole screenings to identify melanoma in its earliest stages, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients.
