Actinic Keratosis: Causes, Signs and Preventation

| no mohs surgery said, | 20th August 07 |
| I had mohs surgery after being diagnosed with AK on the side of my nose. The scar is taking forever to heal, and there's redness and puffiness surrounding the surgery site that becomes puffy and inflamed as the day progresses. Upon going back to the doctor, I was told that I would just need to be patient, and that it would take a year for it to heal, and that maybe the skin would fill it/grow back. I wish he would have offered another form of treatment, such as cream or freezing. Instead, I am left with a deep crater on my nose that no make up or cover up can fix. Think twice before having the surgery. Everyday I wake up, and attempt to cover it up, but can't. It became apparent in my experience that the doctors goal is merely to rid the diagnosis, with no regard for cosmetic appearance of the patient. Upon seeking a second opinion, I was informed that I should have received stitches at the time of the surgery. Thanks.....doc. | |
