I am 57 and have never seen a skin doctor before…I always thought of it as an age spot under my eye but my mom said, “you better get that checked out” so monday I will find out if I need to have it removed or not…it will leave a nasty scar if it’s cancer because my ex wife had skin cancer on her nose and they cut a huge hole in her nose…felt bad for her. There goes my looks.

Better safe than sorry @jukebox. You’re a guitarist.
Worry more about your hands than your looks.

No problem. Yw. I’ve personally had around 15 miles removed.
Good luck, and take care!

Yes it is good to periodically go to a dermatologist especially if you have had a lot of nasty sunburns like me. I have had two basal cell carcinomas already. It’s better to catch it early.

Best wishes. Good thing you are getting it checked. I had a cancer scare about two years ago when high proteins were found in my system so I know how it feels.

Mate. Try being out here in our sun. I’m booked in monday for my yearly skin check but I’ve missed a year and I’m out in the bloody sun all the time.
It’s simple. Get checked once a year and things found early really can make a big difference in the modern world. Lots of really good things coming online for skin cancer and such.
