At age 26, I went to see a dermatologist about another issue, but I figured, Hey! While I'm here, can you get this tiny little, flesh colored wart like bump out of the groove of my nose, that's been hanging out for a year or 2? I was surprised that they wanted to biopsy it. I was even more shocked a few days later when I got a call that the little dot on my nose was in fact Basal Cell...
I had Mohs surgery for a basal cell carcinoma on my upper cheek bone, under my eye in the morning and Dr. Richard Schwartz performed cosmetic surgery to close up the wound from the basal cell removal that afternoon. It is healing beautifully and I continue to faithfully and carefully protect my skin from the South Florida sun.
