Brief Answer:
moles nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the photographs.
These are simple moles.
You don't need to worry much ad these are harmless.
If there is a rapid increase in the size of these moles or there is pain then a biopsy must be done to rule out malignancy.
Just relax and have a watch on these moles.
Let Me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
