The BCC has been completely excised using Mohs' micrographic surgery.

This patient opted to have "laissez-faire" repair as the defect was well positioned and a good size for this. The appearance a few weeks later is excellent and will continue to improve.

This has been excised by Mohs' micrographic surgery leaving a "hole" with loss of the skin and underlying muscle.

Oculoplastic repair of the defect has been done using a transnasal bilobed flap. This shows the arly post-operative appearance with the "hole" completely filled and eyelid normal appearance maintained.
