Are moles ugly? Do other people even notice them on others?

I have the same kind of mole on my face. Most people don't really notice them. I was thinking of having it removed, but then you're left with a scar. I'd rather have a mole than a scar.

Ugly is on the eye of the beholder. Shame on you for such a shallow question.

I don't think that it's such a big deal for the everyday person.  It certainly isn't worth all of the publicity.  Now, that being said, I hope that their little girl is healthy, but I think it would be great karma if she were ugly!

Mine look like a little white marbles the size of a pinhead just under my lower eyelid.  (very different from a sty)  They can last for weeks or even months at a time.\n\nI get these from time to time.  They never go away on there own and eventually become painful when I apply makeup.  I get them just under my bottom eyelid.  I ususally take a pair of tweezers and gently squeeze them. I do not pull on my skin, just pinch the "marble" under the skin   It take me a few tries but they do come out.  If your extrememly careful you will not harm your skin. I have never had any bleeding or bruising afterwards.  You might consider cleaning your tweezers with alcohol before you use them.\n\nPS I think it has more to do with heredity than diet or cleaning your face.  These are not your normal pimple like bumps as you probably aleady know.\n\nI also get tiny tab moles on my neck and upper chest from time to time.

From the Mayo Clinic website:\n\nBoth freckles and moles are pigmented spots on the skin. Your skin contains cells called melanocytes, which make melanin, the substance that gives your skin its color. Freckles and moles are areas of increased melanin in the skin.\n\nA freckle (ephelis) is an increase in pigment in the innermost (basal) layer of the epidermis, which is the top layer of skin. People aren't born with freckles. They develop in childhood and in later years as a result of repeated sun exposure. Freckles occur primarily in sun-exposed areas such as the nose and shoulders. It's thought that freckling is a protective mechanism of the skin. Freckles are especially common in people with fair complexions. Heredity likely also influences freckling.\n\nFreckles are superficial and usually don't need removal. They're not associated with cancer. But people with fair complexions are at increased risk of skin cancer with excessive sun exposure.\n\nA mole (nevus) is a small cluster of melanocytes (nevus cells) in the basal layer of the epidermis or in the top layers of the dermis, the second layer of skin. Moles are usually present soon after birth and tend to become more prominent with age. Moles can develop anywhere on the skin, even between the fingers and toes. Most moles are small — usually between 3 and 10 millimeters in diameter — but some can be quite large. They may vary in color from very light to very dark. Their color may darken as a result of sun exposure or hormonal changes during pregnancy.\n\nMoles usually don't need treatment. You can have a mole removed for cosmetic reasons. The procedure is usually done in your doctor's or dermatologist's office and takes only a short time. Rarely, moles can become cancerous (melanoma). See your doctor about any mole that changes in size, shape or color, or becomes painful.

I've had a few moles removed. I had two sliced off and that was quite easy and didn't leave much of a scar - just a white spot. The other two I had cut out and that was less easy but still nothing major. My Mum had a melanoma removed. She has a big hole in her leg but fortunately it hadn't spread. Get any moles you're vaguely worried about off and then you won't have to worry about them developing into something nasty later.

Moles are a part of nature. They carry no meaning. As you\nget older certain things on your body changes and somethings\nappears. Moles appear as well as skin blotches. These are\na sign of aging. Alot of people get them removed.

If the borders are well defined and the colour is solid and uniform then it is probably just a regular mole.  If you're unsure, you should always ask a professional opinion.

Sure it is,and it's a shame ! There was a study not long ago done on the exact reasons we deem one person attractive and the next not. It seems to have a lot to do with symetry...if both sides of your face are 'equal'. Examples of an 'equal' face would be Mel Gibson, the actor, or Cindy Crawford, the model. Their good looks are good looks to us because their faces are symetrical.  What a small thing to decide whether one is socially acceptable or not! What small people we are to judge folks by their looks, anyway! Look at Albert Einstein..no one would EVER accuse him of being physically attractive, yet look at what he accomplished for mankind! What was it Forrest Gump said all the time? Ugly is as ugly does??

Yes that is completely normal, Just make sure you keep an eye on your mole to monitor the size, shape and colour of it though.\nIf you notice any changes in it's appearance get it checked by your doctor.

Beauty marks are pretty much moles that are in a place that makes it attractive. The most popular beauty mark is when there is a mole a few centimeters from the corner of a lip, like Marilyn Monroe.\n\nThe high concentration of melanin, a dark pigment, is responsible for the dark color of moles. Most moles are simply birth marks. Some scientists think that an overexposure to ultraviolet light or excesssive sunlight may play a role in the forming acquired moles, but more research is needed to support this.\n\nThe number of moles on a person's body appears to be hereditary. This applies also to their color and shape.\n\nSudden and unexpected changes in skin moles, such as bleeding, irritation, darkening, sudden growth or change in shape, can be a sign of skin cancer, so keep a good eye on those moles!\n\nHope this helps!

no skin cancer has nothing at all to do with hair follicles infact if a mole is srouting hairs its very unlikly to be cancerous

yeah....its indeed a true question asked by you, even i have seen many people staring at me, even while walking on the road, and thats a very ugly and an embarassing thing.\nGuess, maybe we look like Ms Universes....so they stare at us. See, we are so beautiful and total damsels, this is proved by their reactions....and yup it maybe an illusion of love in case if the person sees you again and again with a sweet smile on his/her face.

Moles are a collection of overactive pigment cells in the skin.  ...I think.  Some moles could be a sign of cancerous cells, but most aren't.
