Atypical moles are also called dysplastic moles, and on microscopic evaluation are described at mild, moderate or severe. Dr. Sadoff will review the meaning of the pathology report and any next steps that are indicated. In many situations, the most important instruction is that the patient continue to observe their skin for any lesions that are changing or those that may appear or behave different from the rest. Of course, Dr Sadoff will also schedule routine examinations so that she may also continue to observe your skin closely.
