얼굴에 후광이 있는 점이 생겼어요.
A mole on the face with unclear boundaries and changing shape, possibly with a halo around it, could be concerning for a few conditions:
- Halo Nevus: A halo nevus is a mole surrounded by a depigmented “halo.” While often benign, any changing mole, especially with unclear borders, warrants close monitoring.
- Atypical Mole (Dysplastic Nevus): This type of mole has irregular borders, uneven color, and can grow or change shape. They are generally benign but can sometimes progress to melanoma, so they need careful observation.
- Melanoma: Melanomas often show asymmetry, border irregularity, color variation, and changes over time. If the mole is evolving in appearance, it could be a sign of this more serious skin cancer.
In any case, a mole with these characteristics should be evaluated by a dermatologist, who may recommend a dermatoscopy or biopsy to assess the mole further.
Here is a medical illustration of a halo nevus (후광모반). It shows a mole at the center surrounded by a depigmented (lighter) halo. This is often seen in benign conditions but should still be monitored if there are significant changes in size, shape, or color.
