Melanoma Pictures

Download free pictures of melanoma and comparison pictures showing the differences between it and other moles.

Identify the different types of melanoma by looking at the pictures below. I’ve edited the images to show close-up views of what a melanoma looks like, so you can compare your mole with these images. If you see similarities, make an appointment at a hospital and ask for a diagnosis. Use the pictures to your advantage.

Pay close attention to the following information about melanoma pictures because not every mole is melanoma. If you can correctly identify a mole, you can rest assured that it is not a concern. Read this information carefully.

I have placed the first picture just below this paragraph. It is the most common type of melanoma.Look at the picture closely! While it may resemble a mole, there’s a key difference. A typical mole is monochromatic, typically dark in color, often dark brown. (Only thin and small moles are lighter.) In melanoma, the colors are typically two or more colors. For example, one part of the spot may be dark brown, while the other part is light brown. If you look at this picture, you will see that the dark part is thick and the thin part is light. This is the first important difference, but it is not sufficient on its own. You also need to look at another feature.

The second detail is that mole spots are mostly round. In other words, they do not spread. Melanoma spots, on the other hand, are not round but rather have a shapeless appearance. If you look carefully at the picture, you will see that the spot has a completely mixed edge in the shape of a cloud. Even if this second feature is similar, you should not make a decision right away. Because you also need to look at another feature. Ordinary mole spots do not bleed, do not dry up and are inherent in your body. However, melanoma moles appear later, sometimes bleed and even dry out and crust over. This is an important tip to help you make your decision.

A mole stain never grows. Even if it rarely grows, it will not change much because it will be a very small growth. Melanomas grow faster and can show growth that can double even in 1 year. When you take this detail into account, you will be able to better identify what the spot on your body is.If you think it is melanoma, go to the hospital before it is too late. If it’s not melanoma, relax and take it easy.

Compare images of mole spots and melanoma.

I have attached a large picture of normal mole spots and opposite it a picture of melanoma spots. This makes the comparison easier. Look closely at the pictures. The ones on top are normal mole spots. They all look round and smoother. The melanoma pictures below stand out with their mountainous shapes and dark colors. Observe closely, and you’re almost certain to make an accurate decision. I hope you don’t have melanoma. Use the download buttons below to save the images to your computer or cell phone and share them with someone you know. This will make it easy for you to find the pictures later.

A picture of melanoma on the bottom of the foot.

Look closely at the bottom picture. See the tiny spot on the sole of the foot? It’s hard to tell if it’s a mole or melanoma because it’s so small.In cases like this, consider whether the spot was there since birth or if it’s new. This will give you a clue. However, small spots like this are also seen when there is subcutaneous bleeding and the blood does not come out, but that is easy to recognize. Melanoma will be painless, but it will give you a serious web. When you know this, you can recognize spots even if they are small.

Picture a dark, misshapen spot.

If you look closely at the bottom picture, you’ll see that the spot is made up of pieces, which is an example of melanoma. However, if it were a mole, there would be no gaps between the spots, and a single piece would be visible. If you have a spot like this, we can say with certainty that it is a melanoma.

This is a picture of a crusted and swollen melanoma.

Take a look at this next example. As you can see in the picture below, there’s a spot that’s swollen in the center and has a balloon-like appearance. It’s not just a stain, but a scab-like surrounding. These spots are likely to bleed, as I mentioned, because of the swelling and scabs. However, if a similar stain shows improvement—for example, if the scab falls off within 10 days and clean skin is visible underneath—then it is not melanoma. Instead, it is a blister resulting from a wound or blow. Melanoma spots do not heal, they become increasingly problematic and continue to grow. Therefore, it is crucial not to jump to conclusions and assert a diagnosis of melanoma without taking these two criteria into full consideration.

Another picture clearly shows that this is not a mole spot because it is large and completely disorganized. It also looks like a burn wound, but if it was caused by a burn, you should already know that. Therefore if this kind of spot is not the result of a burn, then you should suspect melanoma because it clearly shows that there may be more destruction under the skin.

If you look closely at the picture, you’ll notice that some parts are dark brown, some have a pink hue, and some are light brown, indicating that the stain has multiple colors. This is significant evidence that it’s melanoma. If you see a spot like this, don’t hesitate to consult a doctor. It’s dangerous.

We’ve examined real melanoma images and now we’ll see what melanoma looks like under a microscope.

These are microscope images of melanoma.

The images below show groupings of spots magnified with a microscope. Each spot looks like hundreds of small pieces coming together. I included these images to show what is inside you, but do not use them to assess yourself. Only doctors who have read about melanoma and conduct scientific studies can evaluate these images.

I have clarified the subject and shared very valuable photos with you. I hope it will be useful for you. If you have any questions, please write to me.
