Hello and welcome to HCM,
The recurrent moles are not alarming but a close watch should be kept.
One of the moles should be removed for hiatopathological examination.
If it turns out to be benign, there is nothing to worry.
You should look for any change in size, color or shape of the mole.
If any of these changes occur, immediate biopsy should be done to look for any malignant pathology.
Multiple and recurrent moles are a risk factor for development of dyaplastic nevi and malignant melanoma.

Thanks and take care
