A member asked:
If a doctor told me not to worry about a basal cell and i had half of my lesion removed twice is it bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it's bad.: Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer. It rarely spreads to other parts of the body. But it can invade deeply where it is. So if you have confirmed basal cell carcinoma it should be removed completely. Consult a mohs certified dermatologist.
