I had a Mohs Procedure done on a melanoma by a dermatological plastic surgeon. It went very well and I am happy with the results. What I might add to the above posts is that I was a compliant patient and rigorously adhered to the surgeon's instructions about frequently cleaning/tending/dressing the wound and changing the bandage twice a day as prescribed. It took weeks to heal because the wound on my scalp was so large, initially the size of a stack of three half dollars.
