However, it is also possible that this is an atypical mole, which is not cancerous but should still be monitored closely. It is important to get this mole evaluated by a dermatologist as soon as possible. The dermatologist may perform a biopsy, where a small sample of the mole is taken and examined under a microscope to determine if it is cancerous. Early detection and treatment are crucial for melanoma. In the meantime, avoid excessive sun exposure and use sunscreen to protect your skin. If you notice any changes in the mole, such as an increase in size, change in color, or bleeding, seek medical attention immediately.
