The only place in Bangkok I can recommend for this is the government Derm Institute near Victory Monument.  https://www.iod.go.th/en/

 

Cost of consultation will  be modest. If biopsy is done (and you should insist on it; do not rely on the experience of the dermatologist looking at your moles as experience with skin cancer is very, very limited in Thailand. ) then that adds to the cost but probably still just a few thousand baht per mole.

 

Alternatively if you can get to Pattaya then this doctor specializes in skin cancer

Cost will be more, though. Probably about 15k per mole give or take

 

If the cosmetic result is a concern (note that wide incision may be necessary) then you might need a plastic surgeon to remove and that would up the costs

 

Whenever you go, be insistent re biopsy even if the doctor dismisses them are simple moles. And do not delay; in the case of a mole the issue is potential melanoma which is a much greater danger than other types of skin cancer.

He states  in the OP that the moles have rapidly increased in size.

 

This is a potentially dangerous sign. Normal moles grow slowly.

he says "appears to have grown overnight" doesn't specify if existing or new

To be honest, I don't know how long the moles have been there as they are on my back.

 

2 on my back and appear to be flaky. Feel different than other moles.  No itching or pain.
