Skin cancer on face
Has anyone had skin cancer or precancerous cells on their face? If you had it removed, was there a bad scar?

Re: Skin cancer on face
I have both basal cell and precancerous cells on my face. I had the basal cell removed with MOHS surgery. They had to go extremely deep to get it out, but I had a fantastic plastic surgeon repair it and you can't tell. I had about 50 stitches too. The precancerous ones were just frozen off several times and those are fine. No scarring with that. Let me know if you have any questions.

I had a basal cell. Same experience here. There are some old posts about this & some people from here helped me a lot.
