SCC on lip, Transplant patient

Hi There. 

I have recently been diagnosed with lip cancer. I have a SCC in the middle of my lip. I am under the maxillofacial unit and booked to have it removed on New Years Eve. I am petrified. I am so worried about how different my face is going to look and how I wont look like me anymore. I know having the cancer removed is the best thing to happen, but I am feeling so many emotions. 

Has anyone else had a SCC on their lip and had to have this done?
