I've had microdroplet silikon 1000 for acne scars. I am very happy with the results. Unfortunately now I have skin cancer.

It is in the corner of my nose, a delicate area with little skin to spare. I've been advised photodynamic therapy is an option. However, I also have microdroplet silikon that was placed (three years ago) within a few cm of where the cancer is. Is it safe to have PDT given the placement of the silikon? I have been told lasers are not a problem after silikon but I would really like to hear from experts. Please don't reply just to slag off Silikon, I am happy with the choice I made. Thanks!
