WORTH IT
I had a spot on the side of my nose which turned out to be melanoma. I had 3 surgical procedures including a skin graft from my shoulder to close the incision. After the initial biopsy came back suspicious, the original spot was removed and sent out for further biopsy. This came back as melanoma ll situ and a further 3 millimeters was removed and sent for biopsy. This still came back showing melanoma and a further 5 millimeters was removed and was shown as clear of melanoma. A skin graft from my shoulder was performed to close the hole in my nose. It is currently healing very well.

Wow, that is good news, thank you for sharing your experience! Can you post any photos so we can see your results! Where are you in your healing process? Are stitches out?
