Seborrheic keratoses is a very common
benign (not cancerous) skin growth. It may
look scary because it can resemble a wart
or skin cancer, but they are completely
harmless.

skin cancer and can be deadly. If allowed
to grow, melanoma can spread quickly to
other parts of the body. The good news is

highly treatable.
