A few weeks ago my boyfriend had 2 moles removed that his dermatologist was very concered about...
My boyfriend's doctor called today to say that one biopsy was moderate and the other was moderate to severe. He is scheduled for 2 surguries. one is in nov and the other the 2nd week of december.

What does this mean? I am just confused about the moderate/servere biopsy. He didnt tell me much beacuse thats jsut him in nature..Now im just worried! Any help would be appreciated

it probably means that they are a high risk for skin cancer, or have already started having cancerous cells.  I had a cancerous mole removed from my face a few years ago, it was an easy surgery and I have been fine ever since.  It depends on if it is already cancer, and how far along it has progressed, only the doctor can answer that.

I think i answered your question about getting your boyfriends results whilst he was at work. Anyhow, I've looked up moderate to severe moles for you, and i think these are what you mean;

And to me, it looks like your dermatologist means a dysplastic nervus. But you need to discuss this with your dermatologist. And also your boyfriend. Hope the surgery goes well.
