What Is Seborrheic Keratosis?
These days, many patients come in already using the correct term, “seborrheic keratosis.” Still, the most common questions we hear are:
- “What is this?”
- “Is it a mole?”
- “Could it be melasma or an age spot?”

Seborrheic keratoses are often larger than typical moles, and once they show up, they can be hard to ignore—especially on the face.
Even one lesion can make the face look noticeably older.
They’re closely associated with aging and photoaging (sun damage), which is why they’re more common in people in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond rather than in the teens or twenties.
If you notice them on your face—or on a parent’s face—removing them sooner rather than later can help you feel more confident and avoid ongoing worry.
