In July the dr. will remove an area of skin that was surrounding the mole. I go every 6 months for a full body check up & have been doing this for years. I also have had many basal cell cancers removed, some just burned off, others more serious-- I think about 4, had to have Moh's surgery to remove. The ones on my nose left a nasty scar. I am really getting fed up with CANCER!

@mermaid7272 I had MOHS surgery at my right collarbone April 2020, right after pandemic quarantine was called. It took 5 sessions to get clear margins for a nodular basal cell carcinoma. There is a beautiful jagged "j" scar about 6" long. I have earned every scar. My current cancer is in my blood; no surgery for that.
I applaud all skin cancer patients for their dedication to watching over their situations. Sunscreen is so important! All day, all year.
