Recurrence: Usually a wide excision and clear margins on the pathology report are the things you want to see. Local recurrence can occur, and will show as new brown lesion sites forming in the incision line.

Melanoma : A thorough monthly self exam in addition to routine skin exams performed by your dermatologist are extremely important once the melanoma has been completely removed surgically.
