Hi,

Both my dad and my sister-in-law have had facial BCC removed (dad's - one on the forehead, one at the side of his eye, sis-in-law - one under her eye). Neither needed a skin graft although dad was warned his forehead BCC may need it. All their scars, after the first few months of settling down, were absolutely fine. They were neat & hardly visible after a year. Plastic surgeons who deal with facial cancers are far more neat and meticulous than on skin cancers on other parts of the body (I'm like a patchwork quilt all over my body) so please try not to worry too much. Perhaps ask your hairdresser beforehand if they can suggest a style that will draw away the attention from your forehead. Good luck,

Angie (Stage 3 melanoma patient since 2009)
