Basal Cell Carcinoma

I have recently been told that I have a BCC on the side of my nose.  This will need surgery and I am interested whether any one on here has experience of MOHRS surgery. Also any information about general surgery and the healing process. I am 78 years old  but still like to present a smart appearance to the world. Worried about how I will look after surgery. 

  • Hello Pinklady and welcome to the forum.

    We have some information about MOHS surgery on our website but hopefully some of our members who have had this will be along soon to share their experiences and advice.

    If you'd like to discuss any of this further with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to address your concerns and put your mind at ease.

    I hope this helps and all goes well with your surgery when the time comes.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
