I have a mole in the beginning of my eyebrow that is Basel cell carcinoma and needs to be removed. It is about the size of a pencil eraser and clear margins. I am wondering which is the best choice to have it removed with minimal scarring, loss of hair in my brow and not look deformed. The choices I am given is my dermatologist, go out of town fro MOHs or go to a plastic surgeon. I would appreciate any advise!
