Can moles be inherited?

Moles are melanin spots that grow on the skin. They do not cause much impact on people's bodies, but they will have many impacts on their image, both good and bad. The key lies in where the mole grows. Although moles are substances that grow in the body, many people worry that moles will be passed on to the next generation and affect their image and health. So, can moles be inherited? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

The location of moles is not inherited, but the susceptibility to developing moles is. Moles themselves are differentiated from neural crest cells, and the location of moles is relatively random. People with many moles or larger moles on their bodies may have dysplastic nevus syndrome and have a higher risk of melanoma. The disease is caused by a gene mutation in the chromosome, so it is also hereditary. Only my grandfather has a similar mole in the family. Obviously, it cannot be sex-linked inheritance or autosomal dominant inheritance. If it is inherited, then the only possibility is autosomal recessive inheritance. If it is an autosomal recessive inheritance, then working backwards, my grandpa is aa, my grandma is Aa, my mom is Aa, my dad is Aa, and I am the only one among my descendants with aa. This low-probability event happened to me.

If the mole is lighter in color or less in number, you can use some commonly seen foods to remove it.

① Peach blossom and melon seeds honey: Grind dried peach blossoms into powder, grind wax gourd seeds into powder, mix equal parts of the two with an appropriate amount of honey, apply on the face, and apply to the affected area before going to bed every night. For black moles, apply it with dots. Effective for cleansing and removing spots. Suitable for moles, dark spots and freckles.

② Eggplant juice: Cut 1 eggplant into slices and squeeze out the juice. Rub it on the area with the mole, 3 times a day. You will see the effect in ten days.

Note: This method is only suitable for people with shallow moles.

Laser Mole Removal

Many hospitals now offer laser mole removal. The advantage of this method is that it can remove larger moles quickly and thoroughly, but the disadvantages are also obvious. If it fails, it will leave obvious scars, and the cost is also relatively expensive.

Mole removal with medicine

The advantage of using liquid mole removal is that it is convenient and can be done at home. The price of liquid mole removal is cheaper than laser mole removal, and it can also remove larger moles. The disadvantage is that there are many counterfeit products on the market, and it is easy to buy ineffective ones.
