have uploaded picture not applying anything, no itching, bleeding or discomfort. I have ALOT of freckles so not sure what this might be.
Brief Answer:
Better resolution close up pictures
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
I have seen the attached picture.
The picture resolution is not that great.
From what I could make out ,you seem to have developed either a mole or a freckle.
Both these are basically benign skin lesions .
Please tell since when have you developed it ?Did it come up recently or is it an old lesion ?
If possible ,upload some good resolution close up pictures so that I can guide you better .

Sorry my camera wont take a better picture I just noticed in the last 2 months it hasn't gotten any bigger.
Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry about
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Right now ,I don't think it is anything to be very worried about .
But at the same time ,any suspicious lesions over the face surely need to be further assessed by examining them under a magnifying lens or a dermoscope .
So in case the lesion tends to increase any further in size ,then you should surely plan an appointment with your doctor .

Here are 2 more pics with more light the best I can do. As stated it hasn't changed in size color etc.
Brief Answer:
Benign skin lesion
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
Thanks for the pictures .
I have closely reviewed the pictures .
It appears like a naevi or a mole.
You can leave it as such if it died not increase ,
However if it tends to increase in size or is associated with any discomfort like itching or pain ,then see a nearby doctor for closer assessment.
