Seborrhoiec keratosis
These are warty, barnacle-like growths on the skin that increase in number as we age. Some seborrhoiec keratoses are flat and brown whilst others may be raised and warty looking. Sometimes, they can grow to large sizes. Seborrhoiec keratoses appear most commonly on the face, but may also appear on the scalp and the rest of the body. Although they are usually harmless and do not turn cancerous, there is effective treatment to remove them.
