Mole mapping could be beneficial for anyone who is concerned about the possibility of skin cancer. In particular, people with certain risk factors for developing skin cancer should consider mole mapping. Those at increased risk include people with a family history of skin cancer, people with skin types that are susceptible to developing cancer, people who have experienced excessive sun exposure, and people who exhibit numerous moles or skin irregularities. In addition, Dr. Levine will often use mole mapping to follow specific moles that do not need immediate biopsy, but have certain characteristics requiring close observation.
