Velociraptor Jun 2019 1:54pm, 7 Jun 2019 41,901 posts	0 Velociraptor Solaraze is a different strength from Voltarol gel, though it's the same active ingredient. (I've had a few actinic keratoses on my forearms, and they've responded nicely to being frozen with Histofreeze.) Mrs macca should be assured that the surgeon removing her BCC will have treated lots of BCCs in cosmetically sensitive places and will do a lovely job of putting her face together, although the initial stitch lines and swelling might look a little alarming. In the majority of people, skin flaps are used so skilfully that after a few months you wouldn't know the scar was there unless you went looking for it.

Lip Gloss Jun 2019 2:45pm, 7 Jun 2019 34,335 posts	0 Lip Gloss My dad also got a chunk of his ear off late last year because of a cancer. I have burned the tops of my ears numerous times and also my scalp especially when running as I tend to put my hair up and my side shade is left exposed to the sun. Not very clever
macca 53 Jun 2019 4:42pm, 7 Jun 2019 26,891 posts	0 macca 53 I got into the habit of protecting my head when we went to Oz - it’s probably the best protected part of my body now (and needed as I become more and more follically challenged ☹️). I very rarely go out nowadays without SPF 30 or higher - even in winter.
