    Are moles hereditary or is there a way to prevent them?

    		The number of moles on a person's body appears to be hereditary. This applies also to their color and shape.

    Acquired moles are a form of benign neoplasm, while congenital moles are considered a minor malformation, or hamartoma.


    Moles are most often of no medical consequence.

    Some scientists suspect that overexposure to ultraviolet light (including excessive sunlight) may play a role in the forming of acquired moles, but more research is needed in this area.
