Question: I have a small abnormality on my eyelid that my doctor suspects is skin cancer. How should this be treated given the sensitive location? Answer: Initially your dermatologist should do a biopsy. If the biopsy shows that you have a basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, the technique of choice on your eyelid is Mohs Micrographic Surgery. This mapping method gives the highest cure rate and removes the least amount of normal skin.

Question: My husband has what started off looking like a bad pimple on the side of his nose. He's had it for about three days and then it suddenly turned purple, almost like a blood blister except he swears he didn't touch it or try to pop it. Should we be concerned or will this likely go away on its own? Answer: If it lasts more than several weeks, he should see his dermatologist to be sure it is not a skin cancer.

Question: I had Mohs surgery on my nose and now I have a very large defect there, almost a hole. What are my options for improving this? Answer: Some physicians would let the hole fill in on its own. This was the approach often used by Dr. Mohs when he first started performing Mohs surgery over 7 decades ago. Today many physicians choose to repair the defect after surgery.
