Moles/skin tags - darker on chemo

Hi,

Just wondered if anyone had noticed (for those that have moles/skin tags on their face etc) if they got darker while they were on chemo? My mum has quite a few on her face and they got darker. A nurse told her that apparently this can happen on chemo. She is actually getting them checked out at docs today but would be interested to hear from anyone who has noticed this?

Many thanks

hi,

my whole skin tone darkened whilst on chemo, friends thought i had put false tan on…oh and my teeth went whiter, but thats not good as it it is the calcium being bleached out…still look a darker shade on face and body, not complaining,teeth are now returning to off white colour that they were.

take care xx
