@delia2250yahoocom My 77 year old sister recently had a MOHS procedure done near her eye, and went the same day to a plastic surgeon for reconstructive work. This was her first experience with such a procedure. She was pleased with the way it all turned out.

On my face I have scars, including one from a horse kicking me, just inside the orbital bone of my left eye. But most of the scars are from different skin cancers. My daily routine is to use sunscreen, and remind myself that I "have character, my face tells a story".

You mentioned you live in a rural area. Are you able to travel to a more experienced dermatologist? I travel 2 hours for most of my specialists, but my derm Dr is about 40 minutes away.
