Has anyone had any experience having a squamous cell carcinoma removed from their nose?

I have just been diagnosed with quite a large one on the tip of my nose and just don’t know what to expect.

I had an aggressive squamous cell carcinoma on the side of my nose. There was still some left after the Mohs surgery so I then had an ENT surgeon take the rest of it out. I ended up with a forehead flap graft. I will be starting radiation treatment soon. Hopefully yours won’t be this involved. I am doing well and thankful that there is no cancer left!

Thank you for your reply. Glad to hear that your cancer has gone for now and fingers crossed for you as that’s a lot of times to have had it.
I have an appointment for surgery on 6th August, with a plastic surgeon who has said that I will have a dent and need a skin graft, so hoping it doesn’t grow too much more between now and then.
