Mouse mark is the common name for a congenital pigmented nevus, which is distinguished by the darker colour of the skin and often the presence of hairs on its surface. This type of lesion appears on the skin from birth and is caused by the accumulation of melanocytes, the cells responsible for pigmentation. Hairy mouse nevi can take on different shapes, sizes and appear in different places on the body. This not only raises aesthetic concerns, but often also health questions.

Prevention of a nevus should include observation and regular follow-up with a dermatologist. Particular attention should be paid when a nevus begins to change in appearance - for example, in colour, texture or size. Disturbing skin lesions should be removed for detailed examination.

The standard way to remove a pigmented nevus is by surgical excision. The next step should be histopathology. The removed skin nevus undergoes examination due to the risk of melanoma or another type of skin cancer.
A surgical procedure is currently not the only solution for getting rid of a hairy mouse nevus. Those who have benign moles that have been dermatologically examined and do not require invasive measures can use the services of aesthetic medicine clinics. Dermatological treatments to get rid of the problem include cryotherapy, electrocoagulation or laser therapy.

Laser skin lesion removal is a precise procedure that effectively gets rid of the lesion, minimising the risk of scarring. Removal rated mouse is performed for both aesthetic and preventive reasons to eliminate the risk of potential health complications, including the development of skin cancer.

Whatever the reason, any decision to remove a nevus should be preceded by a consultation with a dermatologist who will assess the nature of the nevus and choose the best course of treatment. Regular follow-up of such lesions, especially congenital nevi of the mouse, is an important part of caring for skin health.
