Do I have suspicious mole?

Posted , 2 users are following.

Im 18 years old and I have had this raised mole since birth. It is light brown color and a darker brown at the top, with a small hole in the center. If had hairs growing out of it awhile ago and recently they fell out.. I was worried till I saw new hairs growing. Im not sure if I should be worried or is it suspicious or anything. It bothers me and if I can get some feedback that would be good.image

    Hallo John. It may not be a mole but a dermatofibroma...they often have a dimple in them. They are not harmful. However you said there had been a change in appearance lately so maybe a good idea to get it checked out.
