Tiny Purple Spot On Face. Is It Mole?
Last night I went to bed, and this morning I woke up with something on my face . I looked in the mirrorr and tried to flick it off my face. It would not come off so I looked closer. It seems to be a tiny purple/red (more purple) spot. Is this a mole? Is is going to be there forever? Its on my face and it looks like dirt or something. Its not big, maybe the size of a pen dot. But it s new a distracting!

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
You might have developed freckles.
These are hyperpigmented dots on face,
Mainly on sun exposed areas.
Treatment with LASERS will be helpful
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
