1. Intradermal nevus is the differentiation of large nevus cells, which tend to be more mature small nevus cells and enter the dermis and surrounding connective tissue.

2. Junctional nevus cells exist at the junction of the epidermis and dermis, in the form of multiple nests with clear boundaries and uniform distribution distances; the upper half of each nest is in the bottom layer of the epidermis, and the lower half is in the shallow layer of the dermis. These nevus cells are large nevus cells with darker pigmentation.

3. In the process of nevus cells entering the dermis, compound nevus often produces intradermal nevus and residual junctional nevus at the same time, which is a mixed form of the above-mentioned convex nevus.
