At what age should someone go to the dermatologist to get
all of her moles checked?
Answer Posted / lahari
Even newborns should have their moles checked by the
pediatrician. As we go through life, up to about the age of
30, we form new moles. It is best to perform skin self-
exams every month or two, to be sure that no mole has
changed or that a new and unique mole has not formed on
your body.
