Thank you for updating us, @rainbow369! It sounds strange, although not necessarily alarming, that it worked a little differently. I hope the derm will be reassuring. Wish it were earlier, for peace of mind, but I hope time flies! – Nina, SkinCancer.net Team

Some of those photos can be really intimidating, @rainbow369. I’m glad your experience has been okay! I hope it continues to go well. – Nina, SkinCancer.net Team
