harmless but sometimes they can be the early signs
of certain types of harmful skin cancer.
These moles or growths can usually be removed by
surgery if found to be harmful or a threat to your
health.

The most common and most effective method for
removing skin cancer, although sometimes
expensive, is through surgery.
This method is traditionally done when the cancer
is in the stages one or two because when the cancer
reaches the stages of three and four, the surgery can
have negative consequences.
