Suggest Treatment For A Colored Mole With Irregular Border

Question: I'm worried about a few moles I found. See pictures.
Brief Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM
Detailed Answer:
All 3 moles looks regular and there is no any sign of malignancy or dysplasia. Of course,only biopsy can confirm this 100%,but from these images I dont see reason for removal or dermatologic examination at this point. Just avoid excessive sunlight,use sun protection and follow any new signs of rapid growth of these moles. Wish you good health. Regards

Thank you for your quick reply. I was most concerned about 100_1183.JPG because it seems like it's not circular or oval shaped and I thought the border might be a bit irregular. But at least it's small and one-colored and not raised.
Brief Answer:
Hi
Detailed Answer:
No,this is definitely not suspicious mole. this is superficial brown mole which is not oval but there is no irregularity and it is not dentated as melanoma would be. These is no any sign of abnormality.

Thanks again. Just want to know what you mean by "dentated."

Detailed Answer:
It means something like serrated, or infiltrating surrounding tissue like spikes. This is not seen in your case. edges of these moles are normal.
