The recovery associated with your Mohs surgery will be a function of the following factors: size of the tumor, size of the resultant defect after the tumor, type of closure utilized by Mohs surgeon and location of tumor. All of these can change the expected duration of healing time. Usually the face heals the fastest and the best.
