@katkir Thank you for your reply. And, welcome to Mayo clinic Connect! Do you experience seborrheic keratoses? As a maiignant melanoma survivor [surgery in 2008] I am always on the lookout for issues, and recently had several invasive squamous cell cancers removed. In a few weeks my semi-annual skin check appointment will no doubt uncover more actinic keratoses, and perhaps more spots to biopsy. One can never be too careful!

Yes, I have hundreds of SebKs and sometimes wonder how my dermatologist can separate them from more worrisome skin lesions. I was diagnosed with superficial spreading melanoma on my left posterior upper arm 2 years ago and have skin checks every 3-4 months. So far nothing of new concern.
