Does this look like melanoma?

absolutely not!!! Melanoma is black with uneven, asymmetric, and irregular edges. It is elevated, and is over 5mm in diameter. It is very dark, almost black because it is caused by cancer of melanocytes (melanin producing cells) which secrete dark brown pigment melanin. Don't worry about it, it's just a pimple.
