Keratosis: Overview

Seborrheic Keratoses are brown, black or flesh-colored growths on the skin. They can appear anywhere on the skin but mainly are found on the torso and temples. They occur more frequently in middle-aged and older people and vary widely in size and growth rate. Generally, these wart-like growths look like they were glued or stuck onto the skin and have a flat, waxy surface. Exposure to arsenic may cause such growths.
