I have a pt with BCC just above her right eyebrow (maybe 1.5cm away).
In residency, we treated facial lesions slowly (60/30) and 2cm margin.
Two questions:
1) Curious what fractionation schedule others would use - there a million ways to do this. I lean toward 60/30 for cosmesis. Anyone for a much shorter regimen?
2) Are 2cm margins really necessary? Is there any slam-dunk data on this?? In her case, she'd lose an eyebrow if I use margins that big.
I don't treat skin much anymore, so welcome any criticisms and advice!
