Dr. Casper MUST submit ALL tissue removed for pathology and cytology determination. If you are going to a lab to recreate, then aesthetics are valid. If the MD uses the lab so that insurances cover the cost of testing, I appreciate that. I have had biopsies on my face and have had radiation treatment as a result. I am grateful that the squamous cell carcinoma did not have the time to progress. This was 100% due to Dr. Casper finding a lesion I never saw on the tip of my nose. He biopsied it and treated me. I had no history. I trust Dr. C.
I am a retired nurse with 43 years in the field. I am highly suspect until I prove things otherwise. I suppose we can look under every single rock until something moves but, hey. Time wasted in my book.
Scabs can be warning signs. Consider the alternative if nothing was done.
Dr. Casper is cautious here in sunburn central. He is well known in the medical community as a respected clinician. Keep checking your skin.
