Just Diagnosed with BCC with Morpheaform Features, on Nose, HELP

Fido44
After having a biopsy was diagnosed with BCC with morpheaform features on the side almost tip of my nose. Please help....one plastic surgeon traumatized me with his rendition of cartilage from the ear and/or nose to fix. Another said 75% time a bilobed flap would fix, extremely anxious over possibility of forehead flap and scarring...any scarring scares me drastically. Surgeons I am scheduled to see in 4 weeks is a mohs surgeon from John Hopkins, and the plastics is also from Hopkins.
