Anyone have Squamous cell cancer and where?

While having MOHS surgery for basal cell, they also found squamous cell in there as well. This was on my nose. They removed it until the margins were clear, but it took 3 times. I had to have reconstructive surgery after that as the hole was pretty large.

@kaki49 That's one of the benefits of Mohs - really being able to examine the deeper cells under the microscope. I imagine this was a long and surprising procedure for you but it must have been reassuring that all the margins were clear. Have you been satisfied with the outcome?
