My Post Mohs Nose- 2 weeks post-op

Well, the surgi-strips fell off today- which was a momentus occasion as I finally got to wash my entire nose!!!! Although, this picture was taken this evening after a long day in the kitchen, so you aren't seeing what I saw this morning. I let the hubby see the post mohs nose before I did. He actually didn't notice the surgistrips were missing until I pointed it out. There was no sound this time so I quickly went and looked at myself. I can see how my nose looks different, but you can be the judge of the before and after mohs surgery nose. As you can see from the profile the dent in my nose is leveling out.... so we will see. Overall, I am pleased with my nose and Mohs Surgery.

A Place Where I Found Some Info

There is plenty of information online that will describe every scientific fact about Mohs Surgery.... however most of the pictures and other info online is for EXTREME cases. I was clearly not one of those. So, naturally, I was hesitant to take such drastic measures. In search of someone who had a similar experience, I found this site.

Introduction

I recently had Mohs surgery to remove a spot of basal cells on the bridge of my nose. As it was a small spot and I am only in my early 30s, I was hesitant to get it done. I had a very difficult time finding pictures online of what I would look like afterwards. Most of the pictures were of EXTREME cases or on other parts of the nose/face. I wanted information about the bridge of my nose, where the skin is less supple. Anyway, I took a before photo and will be taking pictures every few days/weeks so that everyone can see what it looks like and make the decision for themselves. Feel free to ask me questions or comment.
