Allowed to grow, BCCs can grow wide and deep into the skin, destroying skin, tissue and bone.
“The longer you wait to have a BCC treated, the more likely it is to recur, sometimes repeatedly,” warned the charity.
Treatment for BCCs
Most small or early BCCs can be treated within one day within the hospital, which won’t require an overnight stay.
Options include all types of surgery, from electrosurgery to laser surgery.
