    I have an appointment on Friday but am a little nervous. I have had this spot on my face for probably 4-5 years or so. It has very slowly grown, but is still only about .5mm round. It is on my cheek. Here are some images. Should I be worried:

    A lesion can’t be properly diagnosed without a biopsy. The doctor will determine that on Friday. I know this is nerve wracking but we’ve all been through it and you have to take it one day at a time. Let us know how things go.

    It doesn’t look scary to me, BUT if it is worrying you it is important to listen to your inner voice and have it removed.

    Good luck!
