Unwanted skin growths include skin tags, seborrheic keratoses (SK), dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN), warts, and moles. These growths can vary in appearance and are generally benign, though they may cause discomfort or cosmetic concerns.
Causes
The causes of unwanted skin growths vary: skin tags often result from friction; SK and DPN are linked to genetics and aging; warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV).
