Reasons to Cause Skin Moles

Skin moles are formed when melanocyte cells grow in clusters and not spread thought the skin, actually melanocyte cells produce melanin and are responsible for the color of the skin, eyes and hair.

Skin moles are irregular or dark markings on the skin, often round or oval-shaped. The color may vary to different shades. Some skin moles are flat while others are a bit raised from the skin.

There are 4 reasons to cause skin moles:

1) Heredity
Our genes determine if we have moles or not. You may have a lot of moles if your parents have plenty of skin moles. Further more a history of skin cancer in your family also increases the risk that a mole may grow or develops into a cancerous growth.

2) Hormonal changes
Hormonal changes make new moles appear or the existing moles to grow bigger and darker. This can be easily found on teenagers. It also happens during the pregnancy and menopausal stage in women.

3) Aging Process
Skin moles are very common. Most of skin moles are present at birth while others appear as the person grows older. Generally as we get older, some tend to disappear.

4) Exposure to sunlight
Exposure to sunlight is the main reason to cause skin moles. Too much exposure to sunlight during childhood and the teenage years highly increases the chances of developing new skin moles or that current ones increase in size. Sun beds and tanning saloons can also increase their growth.

As for the above reasons, we can just decrease the time of exposure in the sun to prevent skin moles to appear. Skin moles are common and usually benign or noncancerous in nature. But if you don’t know the exact reason why skin moles just pop up on my face not because of increased sun exposure, you should check with your doctor about it.

Skin moles are not pleasing to the eye. You can remove the benign skin moles with natural ways and you have the option to choose not to let skin moles affect your physical appearance.
