you have a ton of grey hair, and wrinkles, too!

MrTango:
If I were having the conversation:

Friend: That mole looks like cancer
Me: I've had it for years and it hasn't changed in size, color, or shape.  Thanks for your concern, though.
Friend: Yeah, that mole's definitely cancer.

I'd be very tempted to respond with:

Me: Really?  I wasn't aware that you're an Oncologist.  Where did you do your residency?  >:D

Giggity:
"How exactly do you think this is helping me?"

Phoebe:
Commenting on someone's appearance is bad enough, but the "inspecting" business is creepy.  No one gets to "inspect" me except my doctor, and even then under controlled circumstances.  She's way over the line.  I'd have left as soon as she started on the mole and not waited to hear about my grey hair and wrinkles.

As for grey hairs: "no, you have a lot more than that. you have..." she starts counting "17!" if it happens again, tell her you only had four when you got there.

Lynda_34:
Count your blessings that she didn't pull them out to help you. :-\ >:D

Isometric:
Bleh, toxic friend!

IMHO she's jealous of you, and is pointing out your flaws (if you can call them that) to try to lift her own self esteem.
