What is Keratoses?

A noncancerous skin condition that appears as a waxy brown, black, or tan growth.
A seborrheic keratosis is one of the most common noncancerous skin growths in older adults. While it’s possible for one to appear on its own, multiple growths are more common.
Seborrheic keratosis often appears on the face, chest, shoulders, or back. It has a waxy, scaly, slightly elevated appearance.

Seborrheic keratosis is not contagious.

Thirty percent of people have at least one by the age of 40 years, and they affect over 75 percent of people by the age of 70 years.
