Re: Pre-Melanoma Mole

A few years ago I had basal cell carcinoma on the side of the bridge of my nose and had to have Mohl surgery. All is fine but I was told most skin cancers can be attributed to the sun exposer from younger years. I too am very cautious when in the outdoors and limit my sun exposure greatly. Glad your dermatologist was on top of things.

hi caya, wow that was lucky, so glad they caught it. they say it happened when we were 10! as 10 year olds we didn't want to know about putting cream on our bodies however insistent our parents were.
